We would like to thank Dr Stavros Brekoulakis for his hard work and commitment to the role, and give a warm welcome to Prof. S.I. (Stacie) Strong, the new Editor-in-Chief.

Arbitration: The Journal of International Arbitration, Mediation and Dispute Management is Ciarb’s quarterly academic journal. Since 2018, Stavros has been Editor-in-Chief, heralding in 28 issues.

Stavros commented: “It has been a distinct honour to serve as the Editor-in-Chief of the Journal over the last seven years. I am proud that during my editorship, the Journal maintained its distinct identity, expanded its audience and continued to contribute to the practice and scholarship of international arbitration. I am even prouder that the Journal has, all these years, been a platform of truly diverse authorship giving space to both distinguished commentators and new voices from around the world. As I am stepping down as the Journal’s Editor-in Chief, I want to thank my deputy editors and the editorial board and look forward to seeing the Journal’s continuous success under its new editorship.”

Stacie commented: "I'm looking forward to building on the great work done by outgoing Editor-in-Chief, Stavros Brekoulakis, and continuing to diversify, strengthen and expand the scholarship presented in Ciarb’s Journal in the coming years."

The Journal contains scholarly research on all forms of dispute resolution, and articles focus on different areas of practice across the disciplines of arbitration, mediation and adjudication. Ciarb members can access the Journal through their MyCiarb account.
