The American Arbitration Association-International Centre for Dispute Resolution (AAA-ICDR) Foundation and the JAMS Foundation, two highly-respected nonprofits in the alternative dispute resolution field, have recently announced a significant joint grant. The allocation of $750,000 will support initiatives aimed at augmenting diversity among arbitrators and mediators.
The funding spotlight falls directly on an issue that is increasingly pertinent within the world of dispute resolution – the need for greater diversity. The generous donation from these two prominent arbitration bodies will potentially pave the way for more balanced representation in the field.
