There is less than one month to the biggest Australian ADR conference yet with a program incorporating more than 100 presenters over 3 days of conference and 2 days of workshops. It will start on Monday 10 September, with the Advanced Practice Clinic on Friday 14 September

The speakers Australia’s pre-eminent ADR conference brings together like-minded               professionals from around the globe.  From the US we have keynote speaker Robert Benjamin, as well as Bill Eddy and Jim Cyngler.  Fredrike Bannink from the Netherlands is known throughout Europe, the US and Canada for her mediation skills and  training sessions.  Hear what is happening in Belgium, China, New Zealand, Papua New Guinea, Colombia and throughout  Australia.  Learn about working with our indigenous communities from Max Harrison, Paul Newman, Ippei Okazaki and               Raymond Brazil.  Hear what can happen when young people get involved in settling disputes – from Lyn Doppler, former Principal of Rozelle Public School, and from one of the schools engaged in the NSW Law Society’s Mock Mediation program.

I was invited to speak on the topic “Why Australia is afried of Asylum Seekers”.
