At this year’s ABA International Law Section (ILS) Annual Conference in New York, the American Bar Association (ABA) placed a strong emphasis on international mediation. Under the theme “What International Practitioners Need to Know about the Singapore Convention,” DITGES was represented by our partner Prof. Dr. Renate Dendorfer-Ditges.
The Singapore Convention, an international treaty, aims to facilitate the enforcement of mediated settlement agreements across borders (see www.singaporeconvention.org).

In her presentation, Prof. Dr. Dendorfer-Ditges explored the practical implications of the Convention, particularly in light of the European Union’s non-accession and the challenges associated with its implementation in practice.
