Susanna Jani Award Supporting Excellence in Mediation

From 2009 to 2024this annual award acknowledged someone who made a significant contribution to the field of mediation in BC.

This award recognizes an individual who:

  • Exemplifies ethical practice and social responsibility
  • Is dedicated to the public interest
  • Is open and generous.

 

In 2025, Mediate BC’s Board of Directors updated the award to better reflect its increased focus on areas of reconciliation and social justice, in addition to its continuing public interest focus. Thus, the revamped Excellence in Conflict Resolution Awards include three categories to better recognize deserving individuals: the Reconciliation, Mentor and Builder Awards.
