The Mediators' Green Pledge, issued by the World Mediators Alliance against Climate Change, outlines a list of measures that mediators can take to reduce the climate impact of their work. View the pledge at https://womacc.org/take-the-green-pledge/.
From an early age, I developed an internationalist perspective that has inspired my empowering neutrality approach to Negotiation and Mediation. My approach focuses on fostering cooperation rather than influencing outcomes by using empowering neutrality to power the alternative dispute resolution process, enabling parties in dispute to be in control of the outcome.
I specialize in Online Dispute Resolution focused on Negotiation and Mediation. I am the first International Mediation Institute (IMI) Qualified Mediator via Certified Mediator Training Program (CMTP), Mediation International, am qualified for recognition as an IMI Certified Mediator via Qualifying Assessment Program (QAP), Mediation International, am a Member of the IMI Young Mediators’ Initiative (YMI), and am working toward IMI Online Dispute Resolution Specialization via IMI QAP Instituto de Certificação e Formação de Mediadores Lusófonos (ICFML) Online Mediator Certification.
