Mediation In Australia
Mediation in the multi-cultural society of Australia, as a form of dispute resolution, may involve understanding the role that culture plays. Cultural differences often exist due to race and ethnicity, but can also arise from religion, gender, age, sexual orientation and disabilities. Major concerns in cross-cultural dispute-resolution include perceived power-imbalance — often escalated by communication-difficulties, misconceptions, negotiation-behaviour, face-saving and the publicity surrounding the dispute.
