MEDIATION VS FACILITATION ?

Mediation is a voluntary process of conflict prevention and resolution that allows the parties an opportunity to address their issues in a confidential, private, and safe environment.

Mediation is sometimes referred to as ADR (Alternative Dispute Resolution).

Mediators are trained in conflict resolution skills and techniques and have the expertise needed to give people the best possible opportunity to resolve their disputes.

Mediation is effective:
  • In single-issue and multi-issue disputes
  • In two-people and multi-party conflicts
  • In developing innovative and sustainable solutions when parties are willing but stuck
  • As a preventative intervention early in a conflict
  • As an alternative to avoid further costly public litigation

The mediation process improves communication, narrows outstanding issues, defuses emotions and defines areas of agreement.  Statistics show a success rate for mediation averaging 80 per cent.

Most importantly mediation is a cost effective solution by comparison to costly litigation.

In mediation both parties ultimately author a written agreement themselves. By comparison to litigation and arbitration someone else makes a decision based on evidence other than than the disputants.

Facilitation is where there is more than two disputants. The mediation process is applied to the situation but more than one person speaks. Some examples of where facilitation is used are in a school with a team of teachers, a football team, a company department members of which are all affected by whatever has taken place.
