CEDR's Model Standards

CEDR's Model Standards are guidelines designed to ensure quality and consistency in the practice of dispute resolution, particularly mediation. They set out best practices for mediators, including impartiality, confidentiality, and fair process. These standards help parties trust the resolution process by promoting professionalism, ethical conduct, and effective communication. Essentially, they serve as a blueprint for mediators to deliver fair, efficient, and respectful dispute resolution services, fostering confidence that conflicts can be resolved constructively and ethically.
