The Coaches
for the Marburg Team for the 22nd ICC Mediation Competition 2026/27 are Jakob Krauß and Anastasia Molchanova.
Jakob Krauß studies law at the University of Marburg in his last year. After his participation in the 18th ICC Mediation Competition, he coached the team of the University of Marburg at the 19th ICC Mediation Competition. In the past, Jakob has been part of teams for several mediation competitions in Vilnius and the Netherlands and worked as a volunteer at the IBA-VIAC Mediation & Negotiation Competition in Vienna. Especially meeting people from different cultural backgrounds has inspired him to continue this mediation journey. Besides his studies, Jakob sings in the choir and plays in the big band of the university. He looks forward to supporting the next team on its way to Paris and through the challenges of mediation.
Anastasia Molchanova is a legal professional working in the field of energy and climate. Mediation has been part of her journey for a long time: already during her studies at the University of Marburg she competed in the ICC Mediation Competition and the Willem C. Vis Moot, and went on to coach the University of Marburg's negotiation teams for several years, along with Jakob Krauß reaching the final of the ICC Mediation Competition in 2024 (1st runner-up). The interest-based negotiation and mediation skills she developed along the way have been, and continue to be, a great asset in her professional life too. In her free time, she enjoys board games and volleyball, and sings (badly) at karaoke. She looks forward to supporting the team, together with Jakob, on its way to Paris.
