third-party facilitator

A third-party facilitator is an independent individual or organization that helps two or more parties communicate and negotiate effectively. Their role is to guide discussions, assist in resolving conflicts, and ensure that all voices are heard, without taking sides or making decisions for the parties involved. This neutral position allows the facilitator to create a safe environment for open dialogue, promoting collaboration and finding mutually acceptable solutions. Third-party facilitators are commonly used in various contexts, such as business negotiations, community disputes, and international diplomacy.
