International dialogue for peer mediation

… EDUCATION FOR PEACE …

received by email at CPNN from informazioni@risorsacittadino.org 

Good morning,

Risorsa Cittadino Soc. Coop. Sociale, an agency certified by the Italian Justice Minister to train mediators, is an organisation involved in a divulgation project about the mediation’s culture, called “Invece di Giudicare®” – “Instead of Judging” – (with the European Commission’s recognition). It develops around a net creation between secondary schools called “mediation’s friends”.

This project aims to raise awareness, in the matter of peer mediation, among every subject involved in schools and young people in general; the peer mediation practices could benefit students in school but even outside of it – for example, in youth communities.

Question for this article:

Mediation as a tool for nonviolence and culture of peace

(Article continued from left column)

We would be very interested in establishing a dialogue with organizations within countries where the peer mediation is well known, aiming at sharing experiences and building common opportunities.

Our proposal does not require an over formalisation: we would like to form an informal group, composed by organisations reflecting together on past experiences and the possibility of developing common projects which, through juveniles, could create a better future.

Furthermore, we look out for the chance of developing European projects and lobbying activities with the European Council and the European Union, if shared demands should emerge.

A phone contact will follow this letter: our operators will be happy to meet the needs and reasons of interested organisations.

We would be really grateful if you could tell us in advance if you’re interested, or not, in getting in contact with us to take a common path.

We thank you in advance for your interest and time,

Best Regards
The Organizing Secretary
