The Arab League Educational, Cultural and Scientific Organization (ALECSO) organized, in collaboration with the ALECSO Chair for International Commercial Arbitration (University of Tunis El-Manar), the International Forum on “Arbitration – Mediation – Alternative Dispute Resolution – Corporate Social Responsibility – Duty of Care”. The event took place on May 13, 2025, at ALECSO headquarters in Tunis.

The Forum brought together prominent academics and experts in international commercial arbitration, mediation, alternative dispute resolution (ADR), corporate social responsibility (CSR), and duty of care. It was designed to explore modern approaches to developing arbitration mechanisms as an alternative means for resolving commercial disputes amid economic globalization and increasing international trade. 

This event is part of ALECSO's efforts to foster scientific cooperation between Arab and international institutions, contributing to the advancement of scientific research and the development of innovative legal solutions.

Experts and academics from Tunisia and Europe attended the Forum and offered fresh insights on international arbitration and its applications in light of global economic transformations. 

The launch of the training program in international commercial arbitration, scheduled for May 14-16, 2025, was announced during the Forum.

Participants in this training program include trainees from Algeria and Tunisia. The course aims to enhance their skills in arbitration and sustainable development through lectures and interactive workshops led by specialized experts from Arab and international universities.

The training program also seeks to familiarize participants with the latest developments in international commercial arbitration and its practical applications, ensuring business continuity and balancing the profit-driven goals of commercial enterprises with their social responsibilities.

This international scientific forum represents a valuable opportunity for knowledge and experience exchange among participants from different countries, reinforcing ALECSO’s position as a leading platform of expertise in the Arab world in the fields of education, culture, science, and scientific research.
