World Directory of ADR Blogs Celebrates its Second Anniversary

Work has been so hectic lately that I almost missed an important milestone.

On June 5, the World Directory of Alternative Dispute Resolution Blogs, a site that I developed from a project I began in 2005 to track and catalogue ADR blogs world-wide, celebrated its second anniversary.

Today ADRblogs.com lists 146 blogs from 25 countries, representing conversations across the globe about mediation, negotiation, and conflict resolution in languages that include English, Spanish, Portuguese, German, French, Romanian, Danish, and Turkish.

Here is a random sampling:

• ADR-Blog (Germany)
• Better Than Misery (Israel)
• Resolución Electrónica de Disputas (Argentina)
• Blog Solomediacion.com (Spain)
• The Mediation Times (England)
• Medierea (Romania)
• Réseau Médiation (Belgium)

• Gestão de Conflitos Familiares (Brazil)
• Malaysian Mediation (Malaysia)
