Our Mission.
Supporting Respectful Resolution of Disputes
We support our students and members to become a significant part of the solution to the conflict, family violence and abuse in Australia.
Working as a dispute resolution professional isn’t just a job. It is an opportunity to save lives, livelihoods and the mental health of people in your community.
As mediators we work with people to help them to resolve their disputes without having to go to court or escalate into abusive behaviour.
