Mediation is a process of resolving disputes or conflicts through dialogue and negotiation, with the help of a neutral third party. It can be a valuable tool for promoting peace, justice, and cooperation in various settings, such as workplaces, communities, and international relations. However, mediation also poses some challenges when it comes to ensuring the inclusion and participation of marginalized groups, such as ethnic minorities, women, LGBTQ+ people, refugees, or people with disabilities. Marginalized groups often face discrimination, oppression, or violence, and may have less access to resources, power, or representation. Therefore, they may have different needs, perspectives, and expectations from the dominant or majority groups in a conflict situation. How can you ensure marginalized groups are included in mediation? Here are some tips and strategies to consider.
