Strengthening the future of dispute resolution

We are delighted to share that Collaborative Resolution New Zealand (CRNZ) has joined AMINZ, bringing together expertise, networks, and a shared vision for the future of dispute resolution in Aotearoa New Zealand.

This integration marks an important step forward, strengthening our collective commitment to providing a comprehensive professional framework for dispute resolution practitioners. It ensures that collaborative resolution continues to develop within a strong and well-established organisation, alongside arbitration, mediation, and adjudication.

For AMINZ members, this merger expands the breadth of expertise within our professional community, enhancing learning, professional development, and networking opportunities. For CRNZ members, it offers continuity while opening new doors - providing access to world-class training, mentoring, and a diverse professional network.

This move has been carefully planned to ensure a seamless transition, reinforcing AMINZ’s role as the home of dispute resolution while recognising the valuable contributions of collaborative resolution practitioners.

We look forward to growing together and continuing to shape the future of dispute resolution in Aotearoa New Zealand. We are confident that, by working together, we will continue to advance best practice and build stronger relationships within our professional community.
