Appointments
Appointed Conciliator of the OSCE Court of Conciliation and Arbitration
I was appointed as Conciliator to the OSCE Court of Conciliation and Arbitration by Switzerland in Summer 2025, for an initial six year term.
OSCE Court of Conciliation and Arbitration
The Court was established in 1995 following the entry into force of the Convention of Conciliation and Arbitration within the CSCE (later renamed to ‘OSCE’) and is based in Geneva. It aims to settle inter-State disputes submitted to it by States parties to the Convention through conciliation or arbitration. The Court is not a permanent jurisdiction. The conciliation commission and arbitral tribunal are set up upon request by the parties to a dispute on an ad hoc basis. While the Court has links to other OSCE institutions and structures, it operates as an independent institution.
