Applications have opened for the FairWay Resolution Anne Scragg Scholarship in dispute resolution.

The scholarship was established following the retirement of Anne Scraggs in 2015, to celebrate her outstanding contribution to dispute resolution.

FairWay says it wants to promote best practice dispute resolution, to encourage thought-leadership and foster innovation within the field of dispute resolution.

The winning applicant will receive a $10,000 contribution to their professional development and have the opportunity to join the FairWay team for a 12-week placement working alongside some of New Zealand's leading mediators, conciliators and adjudicators.

Applications are invited from anyone working in or studying dispute resolution in New Zealand.

Applications close at 5pm on 9 September 2018 and can be made online. Further information is available here.
