About

The Talk4Peace project explores the role of transformative mediation as a mechanism for peacebuilding internationally and on the island of Ireland.  Drawing on engagement with mediation practitioners, the project seeks to assess transformative mediation’s potential to promote an inclusive peace through the engagement of women and other minoritised groups as key actors, and to support dialogue and cultural understanding through a wide array of mediation techniques.  The project also explores the role of innovative tools used to maximise inclusion and outreach in mediation practices, including arts and cultural practices.

This project is funded by the Higher Education Authority of Ireland under the North South Research Programme
