In this latest episode of Pod Bless Canada, MLI Research Advisory Board Member Dr. Elliot Tepper was joined by Dr, Andrew Ladley – a leading expert in mediation and international conflict resolution. Dr. Tepper and Dr. Ladley explore a variety of historic crises around the world that have benefited from mediation, touring through the past, present, and future of mediation as a conflict resolution tool.
Dr. Ladley cites examples such as the Tamil-Sri Lankan conflict, the Taliban in Afghanistan, as well as the crisis in Syria to illustrate the need for realistic goals in mediation, and how Canada could position itself as a leader in the mediation arena.
