Training Course on Mediation

On November 12-13, 2020, the Association of Law Firms of Georgia organized an online training for lawyers on the subject matter: “What Is Mediation?” The training provided and reviewed issues similar to: What category of disputes is mediation reasonable for, how to deliver information about mediation to clients? The psychology of entering into negotiations, the line of duty of a mediator, reformulating/reframing what is being said, the criteria for handing over a case to mediation, drawing up a reconciliation act, and more.

 

The training was financially supported and organized by UNDP in the context of the EU “Mediation and Arbitration for Effective Dispute Resolution” project.

 

The training has been led by UNDP trainers: Sophio Chachava and Eter Chachanidze.

 

The training was loaded with practical activities and remained remarkably vivacious. 14 lawyers from ALFG participated in the training.
