GUIDELINES
In 2013, CPR will be making awards in the categories below. The focus is on scholarship, which addresses the resolution, prevention or creative management of major disputes involving public or business institutions, such as those between corporations, between government and corporations, or among multiple parties.
ADR innovations in other areas, such as domestic relations or juvenile justice, are outside the parameters of this competition. Updates and numbered editions will not be considered. Submissions must be first-time published.
Each year, a "Call for Entries and Nominations" email is sent to academic institutions, law reviews and CPR Members in September requesting products that have been published during the year or taught during the prior academic period. Entries are welcome until the deadline. However, submissions will be accepted anytime before September as long as they meet the criteria for that category. The award winners are announced in conjunction with CPR Annual Meeting in January of the following year.
To develop a better understanding of the kind of achievement and written work of most interest, we recommend that you review past Awards Program winners on this web site.
