At World Forum of Mediation Centres #UIAWFMC the @MoJGovUK Minister Lord Bellamy was very clear that government supports mediation which is now the appropriate tool for resolving disputes in modern society.

Very interesting to hear Lady Justice Asplin to talk about how far Mediation has developed in England so now it is taking “centre stage” in civil justice @ the #UIAWFMC in London today

@civil_mediation conference 2023, thanks to Charlotte Steinfeld, Roger Levitt and all who attended “Making #IntegratedMediation Work”: with planning there are no insurmountable obstacles to time-limited, lower-value #mediation success.

It’s time for CMC Updates with CEO Paul Adams, Deputy Chair Nicolas Fournier, Government Liaison @hettistops, @AndyR_CEDR from the Registration and Standards Committee, Programme Manager @VHarrisADR and @DionneDury_HB, Chair of the Workplace Working Group. #CMCconference23

Great to hear Galyna Yeromenko talking about a Ukrainian Mediator’s perspective on the practicalities of Human Rights in #Mediation at the #UIAWFMC 31st meeting in Frankfurt.

Lord Bellamy: MoJ want to change mindsets on justice through priorities of having better information on #mediation, building public confidence in it and ensuring fair access for all. @civil_mediation #CMCconference22

Great to hear UK MoJ Minster Lord Bellamy say at #CMCconference22 of @civil_mediation that “mediators are very much now part of Civil Justice system” and mention he is @cedrsays Accredited.

MasteroftheRolls Geoffrey Vos at Commonwealth Law Assn Mediation Conf, Belfast: Digital development of courts will enhance mediation. Online platforms will prompt parties more to mediation reminding them (+ triggering them) to mediate and helping clarify issues between parties.

MasteroftheRolls Sir Geoffrey Vos at Commonwealth Law Assn Mediation Conf, Belfast: 2004 Halsey case law now “historic” and does not reflect the current dispute resolution environment. Shown by Civil Justice Counci’s report 2021: mandatory mediation doesn’t breach human rights.)

Great talk by Master of the Rolls Sir Geoffrey Vos at the Commonwealth Law Assn Conf in Belfast: It is important to grow confidence in mediation internationally (and nationally) through greater education of the public and consumers on the benefits of mediation.

In the future MasteroftheRolls Sir Geoffrey Vos says what was regarded as alternative dispute resolution (#ADR) will become the mainstream in England&Wales @civil_mediation @CollofMeds #mediationconference

MasteroftheRolls Sir Geoffrey Vos says he’d like the state to be able to deal with majority of (small) cases with ADR leaving larger cases to professional mediators @civil_mediation @CollofMeds #mediationconference

Interested to hear MasteroftheRolls Sir Geoffrey Vos say civil #mediation may continue to flourish in anticipated changes as State takes radically different approaches to dispute resolution @civil_mediation @CollofMeds #mediationconference

Amazing to hear South African Mediators Felicity @SteadyMediator and @johnbrand11 talking about #Mandela as ‘a beacon for change’ in the world at the time of his release in 1990 at tonight’s @cedrsays 30th Anniversary event.
