About Aranda
           The Aranda Series returns this year to challenge and inspire mediation professionals
          around the world to use their skills to reconstruct badly disrupted business ties in the
               midst of unprecedented turbulence and uncertainty in the global economy.

         Led by a specially curated international faculty, this year’s Aranda promises a wealth of
          insights into how mediation practice may evolve when the UNCITRAL Convention on
                              Mediation enters into force in September 2020.
