Course Information

Description

This intensive skill-building workshop on multiparty negotiation and conflict resolution (NCR) aims to help participants manage complex multi-stakeholder negotiations; mediate public disputes; design consensus-building procedures; examine cross-cultural differences and ethical dilemmas; and sustain cooperative relationships.

Small groups will do intensive exercises, and participants will be provided with guided, repeated practice and feedback.
