London International Disputes Week: 2020

The event comprises a two-day conference at Central Hall Westminster, plus fringe events throughout the week. Last year’s LIDW attracted more than 1,100 disputes experts from 47 jurisdictions. This year’s programme includes the rise of group actions, the role of technology and AI, environmental issues, climate change, social responsibility, and the mental health challenges faced by those engaged in the resolution of disputes.

Dame Elizabeth Gloster, former Lady Justice of Appeal, said: ‘London has a grand tradition and heritage as a global centre for dispute resolution, and LIDW will play an important role as we look to understand and shape the future of dispute resolution, both here in the UK and on the international stage.’
