Designing Dispute Systems to Prevent, Manage, and Resolve Conflict
Join Janet Martinez to learn about the art of designing systems to resolve conflicts across all types of organizations, including private, public, nonprofit, and international venues. This workshop is grounded in Professor Martinez, Lisa Blomgren Amsler, and Stephanie E. Smith’s book, Dispute System Design (2020), which applies a framework of design elements across a range of domains, including public and community justice, international and comparative systems, and multi-jurisdictional and complex systems. You will expand your understanding of diverse processes (mediation, arbitration, court), as well as other traditional and digital dispute resolution options, and learn the principles that can serve to evaluate and improve existing systems.
