A Self Help Instructional Guide To Mediation
Everyday Mediation Training... It's Fun!
​
Mediation is a conflict resolution and situation/problem-solving tool. A neutral person helps two disputing parties to come to an agreement.
-
It focuses on the needs of the disputants.
-
It empowers by letting disputants solve their own problem.
​
In Peer Mediation, participants are trained to mediate their peers. Peers are individuals that share something: age, gender, race, national origin, religion, occupation, etc. When you mediate your peers, it eliminates some of the bias that may muddy the waters in the mediation process.
Over our 25+ years, our continual observation and documentation have shown that participants tend to participate more and, thus, learn more when they are trained by their peers. revention and behavior modification are the focuses of the program. One way that this is taught is by using our Train-The-Trainer (TtheT™) concept. Peers training other peers. Youth training other youth. Community folk training other community folk.
