What is the International Centre for Dispute Resolution?

The International Centre for Dispute Resolution (ICDR) is the international division of the American Arbitration Association (AAA), and as such, is in charge of the exclusive administration of all international matters of the AAA. It was established in 1996 in furtherance of the AAA’s vision of becoming ‘the global leader in conflict management built on integrity, committed to innovation and embracing the highest standards of client service achievable in every undertaking’. The ICDR’s aim was, and continues to be, to provide the same high-quality alternative dispute resolution services available in the United States to individuals and organisations around the globe.
