Abstract

In late 2020, the International Arbitration Centre unveiled its ‘Covid-compliant super suite’ hearing venue. Based in London, this venue was aimed towards accommodating the rise in dispute resolution proceedings that were being held both virtually and semi-virtually. Some have viewed this as the inauguration of ‘online dispute resolution’ even though this dispute resolution method has existed, in different settings and forms, long before the outbreak of the global pandemic. Everyone knows that COVID-19 will eventually come to an end, but nobody really knows the fate of online dispute resolution at that stage. Will online dispute resolution revert to in-person hearings, or will it embark on towards the post-pandemic era? Here are the thoughts of a doctoral student that is a proponent of the notion that online dispute resolution is here to stay beyond COVID-19.
