About

This conference will provide a forum for examining dilemmas of inclusive mediation, as well as the potential role of the OSCE in promoting national dialogue and building confidence across different divides. This will be discussed by panels of envoys of regional and international organisations, negotiators and mediators from a number of peace processes from around the world, as well as local actors working in the field.  

The conference is organised by Crisis Management Initiative (CMI) in co-operation with the Co-chairs of the OSCE Group of Friends of Mediation – Finland, Turkey and Switzerland and with the support of the Conflict Prevention Centre of the OSCE Secretariat. CMI is a non-profit organisation founded by President Ahtisaari in 2000, and works to resolve conflict and to build sustainable peace in regions across the world.
