The workshop on navigating domestic abuse matters in mediation, proudly presented by the Saartjie Baartman Centre, aims to equip family mediators, legal practitioners, psychologists, and social workers with the knowledge and skills necessary to address the complexities of domestic abuse within mediation settings. Participants will explore critical topics such as identifying signs of domestic violence, understanding power dynamics, and implementing practices that ensure the safety and well-being of all parties involved.
Additionally, participants will gain insights into collaborative approaches that can be employed alongside mediation to address underlying issues related to domestic violence, ultimately enhancing their effectiveness in supporting families through challenging situations.
