Judges, Magistrates, Mediators attend two-day Advanced Mediation Skills Training
Whatever skills and knowledge that we receive from the Advanced Mediation Skills Training (AMST) we have to grasp it because such trainings won’t repeat themselves, these were the remarks made by Deputy Chief Justice, Hon. Ambeng Kandakasi to the Judges, Magistrates and Mediators who were at the AMST opening ceremony yesterday.
“It is you who is driving the necessary changes our society needs in how we deal with conflicts who doesn’t fail us every single day and its mediators who are in the forefront resolving conflicts.
“I encourage you all to learn more about new skills and apply these skills when mediating,” said Hon. Justice Kandakasi.
“PNG Centre for Judicial Excellence is pleased to be able to facilitate the AMST for mediators in PNG and having Dr. Paul Gibson from Australia as the lead facilitator is a tremendous opportunity that benefits us all”, says Justice John Carey, Judge Administrator, PNGCJE.
The AMST workshop will run for two days and will conclude with a National Mediation Conference tomorrow this is in preparation for the Asia Pacific Mediation Forum which will be conducted from the 19th-21st, August, 2024.
