SADRA
South Australian Alternative Dispute Resolution Association
Who is SADRA?
SADRA works to assist ADR professionals to network, meet other practitioners, and improve practice through educational forums. We are an inclusive organisation that welcomes members with all levels of experience from students to experienced professionals from a variety of disciplines. Members include those from community ADR organisations, non government agencies, public service ADR providers and those interested in ADR research.
SADRA maintains links with other South Australian dispute resolution associations such as Leading Edge in Alternative Dispute Resolution (LEADR) and the Institute of Arbitration & Mediation Australia (IAMA) through a collaborative approach to education forums and joint events.
The objectives of SADRA are:
- to promote cooperative and fair dispute resolution systems throughout South Australia;
- to enhance education, training and research in dispute resolution;
- to share information, skills, resources and experience in dispute resolution;
- to increase awareness of cultural diversity and issues of power imbalance in dispute resolution; and
- to foster cooperation between organisations and disciplines at a State and Federal level to promote these objectives.
SADRA committee meetings are held approximately monthly to which all members are welcome. Education Forums are held at least four times a year.
