The ADR Board at the Department of Law, University of Calcutta serves as a platform for students and professionals interested in ADR to explore and develop their skills, knowledge, and understanding in this dynamic field. We believe in the power of ADR to transform the way disputes are resolved, offering a more efficient, cost-effective, and collaborative approach compared to traditional litigation.
