CDRC Vienna is the leading global consensual dispute resolution moot competition, attracting top students annually to Vienna. Benefitting greatly from the experience and knowledge of, and guidance by, the world-leading consensual dispute resolution experts, competitors can develop and hone their skills, experience, and brilliance in international commercial mediation. The Event invites students to compete as negotiators and mediators, and welcomes professionals to divulge their experience as expert assessors. It is a joint initiative of the International Bar Association–Vienna International Arbitral Centre.

The Competition is proudly supported by the International Mediation Institute and the Young Mediators’ Initiative.

We hope to see you in Vienna!
