| Prof. Jarrett (center) discusses integral mediation at meeting with Justice Center faculty. |
Prof. Brian Jarrett, J.D., UAF Justice Department faculty, spoke to the Justice Center faculty on January 27 about integral mediation and the upcoming second annual alternative dispute resolution cyberconference. Integral mediation encourages participants in the mediation process to look at the variety of mediation styles available and to adapt and utilize strategies from all these approaches to reach a resolution of the issues. Mediation styles include evaluative, interest-based/facilitative, transformative, and narrative.
