Mediate BC partnered with the Justice Institute of BC recently for Looking Out, Looking In: Lenses on Conflict Resolution, a hybrid conference that took place virtually and in New Westminster, BC (JIBC campus).

It was two days of learning, including the main conference on Friday, May 1 and pre-conference workshops on Thursday, April 30. We are grateful to all who joined us for the thoughtful presentations, stimulating conversations, as well as fun social activities to (re)connect with fellow conflict resolution practitioners!
