Humanitarian Mediation Training

The Danish Refugee Council (DRC) and the Danish Demining Group (DDG) are under the auspice of the Network for Conflict Prevention and Peacebuilding offering a 5-day training on humanitarian mediation. You can through this training acquire mediation & dialogue facilitation skills, based on neutral and impartial principles, with a focus on using these skills in humanitarian programmes and/or other conflict contexts. The training draws on principles of adult education, uses a participatory and practical approach aiming at developing skills and aptitudes, based on participants’ own experiences. Extensive experience in mediation or conflict management is not a requirement, however, the participants will be selected based on a motivated application. We will strive to put together a diverse group of participants in order for as much experience and learning to take place between participants. Depending on the number of applications from each organization there may be a limit to the number of applicants from the same organization.
