On 11 January 2024, the OECD has published its report on 'Developing Effective Online Dispute Resolution in Latvia'. The report documents the assessment of online dispute resolution in Latvia and develops key policy recommendations to support its development. It draws from prior influential work of the OECD on access to justice, for example, the OECD Recommendations on Access to Justice and People-Centred Justice Systems.
Professor Felix Steffek, Director of the Centre for Corporate and Commercial Law (3CL), contributed to the OECD project and report as international expert.
He said: "I would like to extend my gratitude to the entire OECD team, the EU representatives and everyone involved in Latvia. The two years with this project were full of inspiration and passion to chart the right path for online dispute resolution. I am delighted to see the report in its final version. It is a treasure trove of strategies for designing and regulating online dispute resolution."
The report is available on the OECD website.
