Mediation Training from a Social Justice Perspective (6-Days)
Community and restorative justice continues to grow and expand across the U.S. and world. With that growth comes increased opportunities for trainings, conferences, and events to deepen one’s relationship with these practices. In our commitment to continual learning, practice, and facilitating connections, we offer this calendar as a go to place to share and find community and restorative justice events.

Mediation Training from a Social Justice Perspective (6-Days)
1/22/2025 - 1/23/2025
Description
Participants are trained to mediate while applying a social justice lens to their own techniques, working to ensure a fair process for all disputants. The training explores the relationship between social justice and how conflicts develop and are resolved in mediation. Participants gain strategies to address these challenges while still facilitating a process with self-determination about the outcome remaining with the disputing parties. Activities include lecturettes, interactive activities, analyses using (actual) videotaped mediation sessions, skill improvement and roleplays; with a focus on the exploration of concepts and skills application rather than on consciousness-raising or group dynamics analyses. Participants receive a mediation certificate upon successful completion of the training. While it is not a restorative justice training, many of the concepts and skills are transferrable. Open to experienced mediators as well as those new to mediation.
