WHY THIS CONFERENCE

The Australia–Africa Mediation Conference will create a new platform for dialogue, knowledge exchange and professional connection between Australia, Africa and the wider international community.

At a time of increasing complexity across communities, organisations and nations, the conference will explore how mediation, dialogue, law, leadership and peace-building can contribute to more constructive approaches to conflict and decision-making.

The aim is not simply to hold a one-off conference, but to begin building.
