The State Bar of Michigan American Indian Law Section and the ADR Section’s Diversity and Inclusion Action Team are co-sponsoring a virtual Diversity Lunch for mediators, arbitrators, other ADR practitioners, and members of the American Indian Law Section on Tuesday, April 5, from noon to 1 p.m. via Zoom.
There will be discussions of issues that face mediators, arbitrators, and other neutrals. Among the topics to be discussed are:
• What are the particular cultural interests that affect American Indian and Alaskan Native communities that ADR providers should consider?
• What can ADR providers learn from Tribal communities and court systems, and principles of peacemaking and restorative justice?
• How can we increase sensitivity to and awareness of diversity issues among mediators, arbitrators, and other neutrals?
• How do we increase the diversity of mediators, arbitrators, and other ADR providers?
• What is implicit bias and what can we do about it?
There is no cost for the virtual lunch.
