Columbia Series: Designing Multi-Tiered Conflict Resolution
Columbia Law School and The United Nations Institute for Training and Research (UNITAR) are pleased to announce the fourth series of workshops on Conflict Resolution, Mediation and Negotiation.
The workshops will deliver the most rigorous, intellectually engaging, interactive, custom programming for United Nations diplomats. Our individual day-long courses will leverage Columbia’s unparalleled strength in the area of conflict resolution, weaving it in with skills building programming that acknowledges the 2030 Agenda and Sustainable Development Goals.
The Workshop will focus on cultivating an understanding of skills for peaceful dialogue and cooperation, and developing insight into how other countries utilize mediation through three case studies. The morning session will be primarily skills-based, and will introduce active listening, asking the right questions, and unpacking facts, interests, and feelings. The afternoon session will build on the morning session and will focus on understanding leadership competencies in interpersonal interactions. This will involve learning about communication techniques in feedback, reframing, and other concepts. The session will also focus on biases and argument styles of different cultures.
