Shanghai Cooperation Organization’s (SCO) expansion has increased opportunities; however it has also enhanced a myriad of challenges in the realm of dispute resolution and no comprehensive mechanism for addressing them exists. Many organizations according to the current research, rely on diplomatic involvement, compliance with international humanitarian law, legal courts, appellate tribunals, alternative dispute resolution (ADR), political discussion, mediation, agreements, negotiation, conciliation and diplomacy etc. This study attempts to explore how the Charter of SCO stipulates dispute resolution mechanisms (DRM) amongst memberstates? what conflict resolution methods do different international organizations employ? and what are the lacunae in SCO’s DRM? Through discourse and content analysis and by utilizing doctrinal legal research methodology, this study concluded that charter lacks a comprehensive legal framework for addressing member states’ internal conflicts and disagreements.The study recommended that SCO needs to stipulate and employ on consensus, arbitration, courts, appellate bodies and administrative tribunals to settle their disputes.
