CSR’s Bob Randolph looked specifically at Sierra Leone’s court system to evaluate whether judicial ineffectiveness in enforcing agribusiness contracts and executing on judgments creates a drag on agricultural productivity. The IDG team’s findings will be published by USAID later in the year.

In November Bob Randolph and internationally acclaimed arbitration expert Mark Ball provided mediation and international commercial arbitration training in Turkmenistan to government officials under a contract with Deloitte consulting, at the request of USAID. The training was well received and generated a lot of interest in ADR amongst the participants, many of whom were senior officials at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Energy (oil and gas) Ministries.
