Training "Arguing: this is how to use it! (Mediation)"
It is difficult to believe, but the last training session on "Arguing: this is how to use it! (Mediation)" within the 1st call of ArtNoConflict by Agnė Tvaronavičienė from Mykolas Romeris University has taken place.
At the beginning of training, the participants discussed the associations that people have with the word mediation and then smoothly went to the stages of conflict development, the concept of mediation, its tasks and the role of a mediator. The importance of understanding the points of view of each party to the conflict was emphasized.
The main components of mediation - positions, interests and needs were compared and examined with each other. The participants learned how mediation relates to Maslow's pyramid of needs and looked at the three levels of mediation. As part of the group work, there was a discussion on why adherence to the principles of mediation was extremely important for effective conflict resolution.
The second part of the meeting was devoted to the mediation process and a detailed examination of the role of the mediator at each stage.
