Centre for Effective Dispute Resolution (CEDR) is a London-based mediation and alternative dispute resolution body. On the 25th of July 1989 a meeting called by Professor John Uff QC and Philip Naughton QC was held at King's College London to discuss the possible formation of an organisation to promote Alternative Dispute Resolution. Following that meeting, where it became clear that such an initiative was not something that the University had the resources to organise so, on the 26th of July 1989, David Miles, a partner in Glovers, wrote to the other solicitors’ firms that had attended (Lovell White Durrant, Masons and Turner Kenneth Brown) proposing they join together to promote such a service. Each firm put £1,500 into a shared fund in order to begin the project. A Steering Committee chaired by David Miles was formed following which CEDR was founded. Professor Karl Mackie, a barrister and psychologist, was appointed the organisation's Chief Executive and Eileen Carroll, a Trans-Atlantic partner with a law firm, joined to become the Deputy Chief Executive. On 12 June 2010 it was announced in the Queen's Birthday Honours that Karl Mackie was awarded the CBE (Commander of the Order of the British Empire) by the UK Government for ‘services to mediation', the first citing of this reason for the award.〔(Law Society Gazette, June 17 2010 )〕 ==Background== Initially CEDR's focus was, by necessity, UK-focused, where in the early 1990s mediation was not well established in business disputes. Through its campaigning and training work CEDR helped influence the civil justice system. In 1996 the then Lord Chief Justice of England and Wales, Lord Harry Woolf (who now retired is Chair of CEDR's International Advisory Council), published his 'Access To Civil Justice Report' which encouraged the use of ADR, followed by the Civil Procedure Rules in 1999 which enabled judges to impose cost sanctions to either party when ADR was refused or ignored. These guidelines, along with case law (for example Dunnet v Railtrack, 2002) and subsequent clarification of the Civil Procedure Rules (CPR) saw the growth of the use of ADR and in particular mediation in the UK. Parallel to this was a growth in demand for CEDR's services in dispute resolution and training. From the mid-1990s onwards CEDR’s focus became international, to begin with encouraging mediation in other European countries and working on international cases, to establishing the MEDAL international mediation service provider alliance (2005) and creating the first international mediation centre in China with China Council for the Promotion of International Trade (CCPIT).
