About His Highness Prince Aga Khan Shia Imami Ismaili International Conciliation and Arbitration Board
The Ismaili Conciliation and Arbitration Boards (CAB) provide dispute resolution services to Shia Ismaili Muslims in over 20 jurisdictions around the world. CABs assist parties with differences or disputes arising from commercial, matrimonial, testate and intestate succession, and other civil liability matters in an equitable, efficient, confidential, cost-effective, amicable and constructive manner. In doing so, CAB’s services embody key mediation principles of voluntariness, confidentiality, neutrality and impartiality, in a way that is culturally sensitive and underpinned by the ethics of Islam.
Congratulations to His Highness Prince Aga Khan Shia Imami Ismaili International Conciliation and Arbitration Board!
IMI Certified Mediator Training Programs, or CMTPs, meet international competency criteria for mediation training excellence. Individuals who complete CMTPs are able to become recognised as ‘IMI Qualified Mediators’. CMTPs can be searched here.
As of June 2021, IMI decided to recognize training delivered in part or entirely online as meeting the standards required of IMI CMTPs. Therefore, the Training Criteria now applies equally to programs that deliver training in-person, in hybrid formats, and online. View IMI’s training criteria.
The minimum standards for training that IMI has set has been accepted by the European Commission for Efficiency of Justice – “CEPEJ“ as the minimum European standard (and indirectly by the EU which accepts and looks onto Council of Europe standards – please see https://www.coe.int/en/web/portal/european-union and the Memorandum of Understanding between the Council of Europe and the European Union). As such, IMI is the only organisation in the world whose standards have been adopted by an intergovernmental standard-setting organisation.
IMI is the only organisation in the world that transcends local jurisdictions to develop global, professional standards for mediators and advocates involved in collaborative dispute resolution and negotiation.
