Mediation Northern Ireland

The first MOST Project learning exchange between Mediation Northern Ireland and the Macedonian Centre for International Cooperation took place from Sunday 21st to Friday 26th March 2010. The exchanges aimed to increase learning and understanding between two post-conflict societies surrounding the much-discussed issue of Policing & Justice.

Participants from eleven organisations travelled to Skopje to explore policing and justice developments in Macedonia, to share their learning and insights and work together to develop best practice. To read more click here.

The Independent newspaper recently carried this interview which is a useful insight into the work of a family mediator working in England. The mediator interviewed said of her work:

"People place a lot of trust in you and that's a real privilege. It's very satisfying to see them let go of painful experiences and move on, and be able to talk about the future in a much more positive way."
