Call for Application | Students Ambassadors | The Indian Mediation Week (10th Edition) | Deadline: 20 October 2026

About the Event:

Indian Mediation Week (IMW) is India’s largest student-run Access to Justice campaign. It began in 2017 when a group of law students at NUJS Kolkata walked out of campus with pamphlets to talk to strangers about mediation, a process most Indians had never heard of.

It has since grown into a nationwide movement spanning 100+ cities, with thousands of student ambassadors and millions of citizens introduced to mediation for the first time.

Indian Mediation Week is an initiative of Sama, India’s leading Online Dispute Resolution (ODR) platform.

Since 2019, Sama has facilitated the filing of over 2.5 crore disputes and the resolution of more than 55 lakh cases, with an average resolution time of 45 days, working with 8+ government bodies and 75+ enterprises. Sama is headquartered in Bengaluru.

Eligibility:

• Students pursuing law (3/5-year LLB or LLM courses) who are passionate about mediation and access to justice in India.
• No prior mediation experience needed, Sama will train you for everything. What matters is that you’re willing to show up and lead.
