What is Peer Mediation?
Peer Mediation is
a confidential process for resolving conflicts.
Participants have the opportunity to talk through
their conflicts with the help of trained student
mediators. Peer Mediators do not take sides or
place blame on anyone. They listen to all participants
and help the participants to develop their own
solution to the conflict.
