The Ukrainian Arbitration Association is a non-profit organization that unites lawyers (irrespective of their nationality or place of residence) who are professionally engaged or interested in international arbitration. Membership in the Ukrainian Arbitration Association is open to all persons with a law degree, having professional interest in international arbitration and sharing the goals and objectives of the Association. Students can join the Association as associate members. The key goals of the Association include, first of all, the promotion of Ukraine, and Kiev in particular, as the seat of arbitration, facilitation and support of interest in international arbitration, extension of knowledge and exchange of experience in cross-border dispute resolution, as well as enhancing cooperation and communications among practitioners in international arbitration around the world. The Ukrainian Arbitration Association is not an arbitration institution. The Association intends to cooperate with arbitration institutions and similar professional associations on the development and promotion of international arbitration. The Ukrainian Arbitration Association invites all practitioners and individuals interested in the development of international arbitration for active collaboration as members and associate members.
