The presentation will be tailored to international-trade attorneys with the goal of imparting a working knowledge of the ADR systems of Nigeria and Zimbabwe as well as an understanding of how these two systems compare with other dispute-resolution options in Africa and beyond. The discussion will cover:

• appointment of arbitrators and counsel

• practical matters such as venue, procedure rules, and time frames

• enforcement

• role of the courts

• binding effect, right of appeal, and power to set aside
