About the week
Dubai Arbitration Week (‘DAW’) is an annual event connecting the UAE’s diverse and busy
community of arbitration
practitioners with the global arbitration community.
Through practical discussion and academic debate, its mission is to showcase the UAE’s and
the wider Middle East’s
important role in the development of arbitration practice and to recognise the pre-eminent
role that arbitration plays
in resolving commercial disputes and upholding the rule of law across the MENA region. The
UAE’s arbitration landscape
is particularly unique in hosting multiple seats of arbitration, including common law
islands such as the Dubai
International Financial Centre and the Abu Dhabi Global Market that co-exist with the
traditional ‘on-shore’ seats in
Dubai, Abu Dhabi and other Emirates.
Since its inception, DAW has grown exponentially to become one of the largest and most well
attended arbitration events
in the world. With over 140 events planned for 2024, this year’s DAW (taking place from 11 –
15 November 2024) is set to
be the largest ever. The full schedule of events is live now.
DAW is organised by a committee of
volunteers from the UAE’s arbitration
community who are proud represent the interests of the local community and to promote
international arbitration and ADR
as peaceful means of dispute resolution.

2009,
as
amended by Legislative Decree No. 64 of 2014 and Legislative Decree No. 26 of 2021.
At its inception, BCDR operated in partnership with the American Arbitration Association. However, in 2022,
reflecting
BCDR's full administrative autonomy, financial independence and self-sufficiency as a now-leading regional
arbitration
centre, this partnership was brought to an amicable close with the mutual agreement of both sides.
BCDR's achievements and standing were recognized by the influential and widely read arbitration journal,
Global
Arbitration Review (GAR), in an award for the 2021 regional arbitration institution that impressed. The GAR
Guide
to
Regional Arbitration has since added BCDR as one of only two arbitration institutions in Africa and the
Middle
East to
its "White List."
BCDR's casework is made up of disputes brought before the BCDR Court and disputes referred to BCDR's
arbitration
and
mediation wing.
