Presented by The Mediation Society and The Center for Negotiation and Dispute Resolution (CNDR) at UC Hastings Law, in collaboration with The JAMS Foundation

In the face of enormous court backlogs and problems with access to justice, reformers from around the world have increasingly turned to mediation. This panel will offer a rare opportunity to learn first-hand about new mediation developments in Asia and Africa from select 2022 Weinstein JAMS International Fellows who are working in these regions. The Fellows will share the successes and challenges they have faced promoting public and private mediation initiatives and convincing skeptics to embrace mediation, as well as their visions for how to promote the development of mediation in their home countries.
