Join us for the official launch of the expanded LGBTQIA+ network by ICC Dispute Resolution Services. Marking Pride Month in June, this network is now open to anyone in the dispute resolution and prevention community.
Since its establishment in 2021, the network has been open to ICC Court members with aims to expand. The ICC LGBTQIA+ network will work in cooperation with ICC World Business Pride, a staff-led initiative for and about the LGBTQIA+ community and allies, to support LGBTQIA+ entrepreneurs and dispute resolution practitioners for capacity-building and information-sharing activities. It aims to support personal development, enable best practice sharing, build understanding, ensure accountability, and create a safe and inclusive environment for those in the LGBTQIA+ community.
Join the LGBTQIA+ Network here.
