Community Mediation provides an important service to the community. It is intended to contribute to the happiness and harmony of the community. In Community mediation, mediation is provided by trained community mediators who represent the community.

Community mediation mechanisms are viewed as an opportunity for citizens to participate in the prevention and early intervention of conflicts as an alternative to institutional mechanisms.

The principles of mediation can actually be used to resolve any misunderstanding or dispute in any facet of our life. In fact, applying the principles properly at the earliest signs of conflict can help keep a situation from escalating into a full blown, knockdown, drag out fight, or worse. We have a large population of eminent and respectable people in the community, like retired people, house wives and others who could contribute some of their time to work as Mediators. It’s a leadership skill that is well worth developing and honing.

Ever thought of becoming a Community Mediator? It takes courage and patience to take up the responsibility of becoming a mediator. Apart from the acceptance and honour given by the community, it also gives absolute satisfaction of becoming peace builders in our community. People from a wide variety of backgrounds can make good mediators. Basically they have to have the fear of God, a concern for humanity, passion for mediation, and be guided by love and stand for peace. They are respected and command an audience and above all, trusted.
