THE ESTABLISHMENT OF THE CENTER

  • The 2022-2026 Strategy for Judicial and Legal Reforms of the Republic of Armenia envisaged the foundation of Arbitration and Mediation Center of Armenia, which would ensure the resolution of local and international disputes. The importance of creating an institutional center for arbitration and mediation is also emphasized in the strategy of the RA government․ These strategic guidelines signaled Armenia’s commitment developing efficient, fair, and contemporary mechanisms for conflict resolution. In 2021 an Advisory Committee was established to ensure that a professional approach for founding the AMCA is adopted. The Committee was composed of well-known and prominent local and international experts.
    In May 2023 the first decision announcing the establishment of the AMCA was signed by the representatives of the “Center for Legislation Development” Foundation, “Armenian General Benevolent Union” and “Armenian Bar Association.” Notably, various authoritative international partners assisted and continue to assist the Center by providing technical assistance as well as contributing to organizational and logistical matters. Moreover, the main portion of the budget necessary for the AMCA’s functioning is provided by EU budget support.
