MEDIATION & ALTERNATIVE DISPUTE RESOLUTION (ADR)
Mediation/ADR is a structured conflict resolution process In which an independent third party, the mediator, assists parties involved to assess options and negotiate an agreement to resolve their dispute and reach a mutually agreeable solution. The role of the mediator includes reducing the obstacles to communication, maximizing the exploration of alternatives, and, addressing the needs of those involved and affected.
