The year 2022 marks the 10th Anniversary of the Kigali International Arbitration Center
(KIAC). This event was an opportunity to celebrate KIAC’s Arbitration cases out of which
40% are international cases with parties from Burundi, China, Ethiopia, Egypt, France,
India, Italy, Kenya, Korea, Nigeria, Pakistan, South Africa, South Korea, Singapore,
Rwanda, Spain, Switzerland, Tanzania, Turkey, Uganda, USA and Zambia
The Anniversary was celebrated by a conference where the international Arbitration
community gathered in Kigali to discuss the hot topics shaping the future of
international Arbitration in one of the major African Arbitral institutions. Furthermore,
the event was an opportunity to share the role of courts in support of Arbitration in
Rwanda where none of KIAC Awards has never been set aside.
