Camera Arbitrale di Venezia

The Venice Chamber of Arbitration (Camera Arbitrale di Venezia) is a non-profit-making association which was established under private law in 1990. The partnership is made up of the professional orders and a number of trade associations of the province of Venice, as well as the municipality of Venice (Comune di Venezia). The Chamber of Arbitration provides instruments that enable settlement of disputes in a manner alternative to recourse to the courts, as arbitration and mediation. The association is also active in the training sector as an organiser of courses including specialist courses and congresses in alternative dispute resolution methods. The Chamber of Arbitration divulges knowledge on mediation and arbitration, and it fosters recourse to these practices. The Chamber firmly believes that extrajudicial settlements are a potentially efficacious means of settling disputes, with benefits for the economic system as a whole
