Note of Appreciation and Recap
Posted by Ann.Lee
Conflict Resolution Week 2020 was a great success! We want to thank all the volunteers and participants for helping us get the word out about our various conversations on conflict and engaging with it effectively.
Some Mediate BC activities we'd like to share:
- Kat Bellamano and Amanda Semenoff's Q&A Instagram Live - "Pandemic Conflict Resolution for Families"
- Pro Bono Clinic – thanks to the volunteer mediators who make this possible. Next Clinic is Nov. 25 (Zoom Link)
- Ashley Syer's interview on BC Today with Michelle Eliot
We also enjoyed a wonderful gathering of conflict resolution professionals at our first Unconference! Great attendance, some inspiring presentations, and a wonderful chance to share ideas with colleagues in BC, along the west cost of the US and parts of Africa! Thanks to all of our presenters and attendees. And, of course, thanks to CLEBC for partnering with us so that our participants had the opportunity to share in the inspirational talks by Stella Sabiiti and Alice Nderitu adding a further international element to our conversations. Look forward to the 2021 Unconference on Conflict Resolution Day - October 21, 2021!
