Join JAMS neutral, Hiro N. Aragaki, Esq., C.Arb, for a hybrid in-person and Zoom discussion on the state of diversity, equity, and inclusion in the dispute resolution field presented by the Center for Negotiation and Dispute Resolution. Diversity, equity, and inclusion is becoming increasingly important in all domains of the law, but especially so in dispute resolution. Implicit biases can creep into everyday negotiation and influence the way that many disputes are settled informally, before they even reach the courthouse steps. The lack of diversity among neutrals and counsel in consumer, commercial, and investor-state arbitration impacts the legitimacy of those processes and may affect outcomes in ways that are not yet fully understood. This hybrid in-person and Zoom conference will address the state of diversity, equity, and inclusion in the dispute resolution field and chart a path for future research and policy interventions.
