Online Dispute Resolution (ODR) continues to be a fertile domain breeding new approaches on how to manage disputes online. Recent developments regarding the Web 2.0, the Semantic Web, and the mobile Web open up an emerging paradigm based on consumer-oriented services, collaboration, open standards and interoperability. Yet, ODR initiatives need to balance these trends with critical requirements such as reputation, trust, confidentiality, privacy and enforceability.
As in the previous five editions of the Workshop, the 6th International ODR Workshop aims at offering a forum for the exchange of ideas and projects between people with different backgrounds, such as providers of ODR-services, researchers in the fields of ADR/ODR, law, argumentation, negotiation and AI & Law as well as practitioners, justice experts and others.

- Argumentation and ODR
- Decision support for ODR
