OUR HISTORY (2017 - 2020)

INTERNATIONAL MEDIATION SINGAPORE COMPETITION 2019

As the competition preceding the Singapore Convention on Mediation 2019, the International Mediation Singapore Competition 2019 welcomed law students from all around the world. It was the first international mediation competition to be held in Singapore. The event received a wide amount of press coverage, not limited to the Straits Times, the Singapore Convention Website, and press coverage by the Singapore Ministry of Law.

We are pleased to announce that every team walked away with a medal (gold, silver and bronze) for the categories of (1) Mediation Advocacy, and (2) Mediation.
