Mediation is a non-binding informal dispute resolution process in which both parties agree to the appointment of a neutral third party intermediary who assists the parties to objectively understand and evaluate their positions, with the aim of reaching a negotiated settlement.
Mediation is a flexible method of dispute resolution that can be adapted to suit the circumstances of the parties and the dispute.
As of 14 September 2015, ACICA will contribute non-confidential process data from closed cases to Dispute Resolution Data where it is aggregated globally by case type. This is done in furtherance of advancing institutional standards, as well as enhancing trust and confidence in international arbitrations and mediations. In doing so, ACICA joins other leading institutions worldwide in advancing understanding and knowledge of the processes involved in international arbitration and mediation. No identifying confidential information, nor comments on the substantive merits of a case are ever disclosed to Dispute Resolution Data.
Persons wishing more information, or desiring to opt-out of non-confidential data being shared, may contact the ACICA Secretariat on +612 9223 1099.
