Carta de la Presidenta del Congreso

Dear colleagues

This is a reminder for you to register for the APMF leadership Summit meeting to be held on December 2-4 in Bangkok this year. Please go to the website to view the developments that have been made to the program and to register: http://www.mediation-leadership.com

We look forward to seeing you there. Please advertise the Summit in your networks. It promises to be an exciting event.

The Asia Pacific Mediation Leadership Summit is being collaboratively designed and hosted by the Asia Pacific Mediation Forum (APMF), Thailand's renowned King Prajadhipok Institute for Peace and Democracy (KPI), Ministry of Justice (MoJ), Ministry of Public Health's Center for Peace in Health Care (MoPH), Chulalongkorn University's Centre for Peace and Conflict Studies, The Rotary Peace Centre and the United Nations Development Program (UNDP).

 

Summit Aim

To engage a range of experienced academics, mediators and conflict transformation practitioners from different cultural, organisational and professional backgrounds who are culturally fluent, creative and innovative, and want to contribute (and build on) their knowledge and expertise and proactively evolve the way that conflicts are mediated and transformed in the Asia-Pacific region.

 

Summit Objectives

1. To evolve capacity, advance collaborations, build networks and promote cross-cultural awareness and understanding of mediation and conflict transformation processes throughout the Asia-Pacific region.

2. To mine the collective depths of the delegates' expertise and skills in order to inspire strategies for change that can advance mediation and conflict transformation processes and promote peace throughout the Asia-Pacific region.

3. To evolve effective 'themed' action plans from focused, cross cutting, facilitated round-table discussions that can be implemented by delegates, and which have real potential to advance conflict transformation processes in culturally fluent ways throughout the Asia-Pacific region.

4. To inspire and support initiatives to advance mediation and conflict transformation processes globally.

 

Summit Format

1. We are identifying cross-cutting, key and sub-themes, in collaboration with participating delegates in advance of the Summit via an interactive internet site and/or an on-line survey.

2. We are inviting inspirational Keynote speakers for each of the chosen themes to summarise the key issues and their relevance to the Asia-Pacific region in order to stimulate round-table Action Group discussions.

3. We will identify and invite volunteer expert facilitators and recorders who can focus and inspire a number of round table discussions over three days, each table with a focus on a different topic.

4. Participants are invited to submit a paper of 2000 words prior to the Summit which addresses one of the themes (this is not compulsory). Papers will be distributed to all participants and the authors will be invited to re-work and re-submit their paper for peer review post-Summit for possible inclusion in an edited book - see the guidelines on the Summit website.

 

Summit Themes

The themes for round-table discussions are being developed with the collaborators and with participating delegates on-line prior to the Summit via the interactive Summit website - they will be cross-cutting and of interest to people from all fields of practice in the Asia-Pacific region.

 

APMF Peace Prize

Please put your thinking cap on and consider who you or your organisation could nominate for the APMF Peace Prize this year. More information about how to nominate an individual or organisation for this prize is on the Summit website.

We hope you will register soon and that we will see you in Bangkok! Keep an eye on the website as many exciting collaborators are now supporting the Summit including the Nelson Mandela Foundation.

 

Kind regards

Dale (on behalf of the Summit Organising Committee and the APMF Executive Committee)
