The international arbitration community should now, more than ever, actively listen to users\u2019 views to understand their changing needs and promote procedures that are meaningful to them. I believe VIAC CAN is an initiative with immense potential to guide this process in the CEE region by bringing together an international community of practitioners and users around VIAC as a leading arbitral institution. I look forward to joining forces with VIAC in this mission.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":10298,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_et_pb_use_builder":"","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":"","ngg_post_thumbnail":0},"class_list":["post-10296","ambassador","type-ambassador","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.viac.eu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/ambassador\/10296","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.viac.eu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/ambassador"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.viac.eu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/ambassador"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.viac.eu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/10298"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.viac.eu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=10296"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
