Languages:
(simultaneous interpretation)
Event number:
109DT09

Areas of law:

This conference will concentrate on practical issues of cross-border mediation:
  • Interaction between mediation and civil proceedings, especially the impact of Directive 2008/52/EC on certain aspects of mediation in civil and commercial matters in the Member States. Topics include the Directive’s scope; cross-border disputes: the inter-State requirement; voluntary or compulsory nature of mediation; mediation’s effect on limitation and prescription periods, and recognition and enforcement of mediation agreements.
  • Quality of mediation services. A practical and continuing training of mediators is required: life-long learning is essential. In cross-border situations, co-mediation is particularly important. Quality control mechanisms and the added value of the (voluntary) European Code of Conduct for Mediators will be discussed.
  • Mediation procedure. The conference will further concentrate on fundamental minimum procedural guarantees for a fair mediation procedure. The European Code of Conduct for Mediators will be looked at in detail.
  • Encouraging mediation. The role of the legal professions, especially the cooperation between lawyers, notaries and judges.
The conference will include workshops which will address specific areas such as family mediation and consumer mediation.
