ABSTRACT
Mediation is the attempt to help parties in a disagreement to hear one another, to minimise the
harm that can come from disagreement to maximize any area of agreement, and to find a way of
preventing the areas of disagreement from interfering with the process of seeking a compromise
or mutually agreed outcome.
Mediation, as used in law, is a form of alternative dispute resolution , a way of resolving disputes
between two or more parties with concrete effects. Typically, a third party, the mediator, assists
the parties to negotiate a settlement. Disputants may mediate disputes in a variety of domains,
such as commercial, legal, diplomatic, workplace, community and family matters. The term
"mediation" broadly refers to any instance in which a third party helps others reach agreement.
More specifically, mediation has a structure, timetable and dynamics that "ordinary" negotiation
lacks. The process is private and confidential, possibly enforced by law. Participation is typically
voluntary. The mediator acts as a neutral third party and facilitates rather than directs the
process. Mediation is becoming a more peaceful and internationally accepted solution in order to
end conflict. Mediation can be used to resolve disputes of any magnitude.
