Let’s Make Peace: Mediation or Meditation?

Congress Centre, conference hall E11
Dispute Resolution
Broadcast
Mediation is a promising and actively developing method used to settle disputes and resolve conflicts, which encompasses a wide range of legal relations – from family and labour to economic and business. To ensure the broader use of the institution of mediation, the Russian Ministry of Justice, along with other government bodies and organizations, is drafting proposals to improve the regulation of the institution of mediation, which could create a foundation for future legislative initiatives. What prospects exist for further developing mediation, establishing growth points for this method of dispute settlement, and popularizing and increasing people’s level of trust in this institution?
