The Centre of Construction Law & Dispute Resolution is conducting a comprehensive empirical research project on the use and practice of Dispute Boards around the world led by Professor Renato Nazzini and Raquel Macedo Moreira. Our main goal is to collect and analyse data in relation to the worldwide use of Dispute Boards as a dispute avoidance and resolution mechanism in projects that took place between January 2018 and December 2023 (inclusive).

Dispute Boards are increasingly used in the construction industry. The empirical data on the subject, however, is limited. The Centre of Construction Law & Dispute Resolution aims at bridging that gap by providing comprehensive data on the use of Dispute Boards over a period of six years. Would you like to contribute to our research? We invite anyone whose practice has involved Dispute Boards in the past six years to answer our survey.
