mediation practice standards

Mediation Practice Standards are guidelines designed to ensure effective and ethical mediation processes. They provide a framework for mediators to follow, promoting professionalism, fairness, and respect in resolving disputes. These standards cover qualifications, procedures, communication, and confidentiality, helping mediators create a safe environment for all parties involved. By adhering to these standards, mediators aim to facilitate constructive dialogue, empower individuals to find their own solutions, and foster positive outcomes through collaboration rather than confrontation. Ultimately, they enhance the credibility and effectiveness of mediation as a conflict resolution method.
