About Centre for Alternative Dispute Resolution
The Centre for Alternative Dispute Resolution (CADR) has been established to promote students’ and researchers’ interest in Alternative Dispute Resolution, constituting dispute resolution methods like Arbitration, Negotiation, Mediation and Conciliation. These methods gained momentum in the country in the past few decades. ADR mechanisms have become a part of the Indian justice delivery system. CADR endeavours to promote and develop ADR as a vehicle of socioeconomic and political justice. The ultimate objective of the Centre is to strengthen the ADR mechanism in the country by emerging as a platform for students to further their interests in the field. A strong team of teachers and students is working towards achieving this end. CADR has not limited its vision to law students and scholars alone, rather it has a greater objective of making the common masses aware of ADR.
