The Centre\u2019s premises offers a modern, centrally located and affordable venue for arbitration, mediation ,other dispute hearings, and for meetings. It is an ideal venue for dispute resolution hearings or private meetings.<\/p>\n
The Centre\u2019s secretariate is tasked with <\/span>administering Mediation and Arbitration process by providing clear procedural guidelines with time-lines, and a case administrator to assist the tribunal in the collation of documents and assist parties in complying with the Mediator\/tribunal\u2019s directions.<\/span><\/p>\n The Centre\u00a0 offers training programs across the spectrum of dispute resolution(mediation, arbitration, construction claim), geared towards growing the pool of ADR practitioners in Uganda. The courses are presented by seasoned practitioners in the different fields and enables participants to master essential skills in all aspects of dispute resolution which will be of enormous importance to their careers and their clients.<\/span>[\/vc_column_text]<\/div> The Centre\u2019s administration process which is unique in Uganda provides the parties with the essential supervisory and logistical support vital for an effective outcome. The first step is that the parties agree to refer the matter to ICAMEK to administer and if and when a dispute arises, either party may request ICAMEK to proceed. Once the Centre accepts a request to administer the arbitration process according to its detailed Rules, it supports and guides the parties as they move towards the desired outcome: a binding arbitration award following a fair hearing in a tailor-made process. Parties often seek to resolve their disputes through arbitration because of the potential advantages over the courts.\u00a0 Advantages include:<\/span><\/p>\n Under the ICAMEK Arbitration Rules, the parties can agree on whether the dispute should be decided by a sole arbitrator or by a tribunal of three arbitrators. If the parties do not agree, ICAMEK decides the number of arbitrators, taking into consideration the complexity of the case, the amount in dispute and any other relevant circumstances.<\/span><\/p>\n The majority of the arbitration appointments\u00a0in ICAMEK arbitrations\u00a0are made by the parties.<\/span><\/p>\n If the dispute is to be resolved by a sole arbitrator, ICAMEK gives the parties a list of arbitrators from which the parties can jointly appoint an arbitrator. If they do not agree on an arbitrator, ICAMEK makes the appointment.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n For three-member tribunals, each side appoints one arbitrator and ICAMEK appoints the chairperson, unless the parties agree otherwise. The parties are free to agree on a different procedure for arbitrator appointments, and it is relatively common for the chairperson to be appointed by the parties jointly or by the party-appointed arbitrators.<\/span><\/p>\n If a party fails or declines to appoint an arbitrator ICAMEK will make the appointment on behalf of that party.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n In making these appointments, the ICAMEK considers primarily the following factors, as stipulated by the ICAMEK Rules and the Policy on the Appointment of Arbitrators:<\/span><\/p>\n [\/vc_column_text]<\/div> [\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”29px”]<\/div><\/div>[\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" [vc_row row_content_width=”grid” css=”.vc_custom_1643637417917{padding-top: 73px !important;padding-bottom: 59px !important;}”][vc_column width=”5\/6″ offset=”vc_col-lg-offset-2 vc_col-lg-8 vc_col-md-offset-1 vc_col-md-10 vc_col-sm-offset-1 vc_col-xs-12″][vc_column_text] You can count on the undivided attention of a team that prizes dispute resolution over court proceedings.
