Center for Dispute Resolution Recognized for Service to Jamaica

The Center for Dispute Resolution, directed by Professor Roberta Mitchell, L’72 and Adjunct Professors Scot Dewhirst, L’78 and Terrence Wheeler, was presented with the Jamaica Dispute Resolution Foundation’s 10th Anniversary Award. The award recognizes the Center for its assistance in developing the Foundation and dispute resolution services in Jamaica and the Caribbean.

The relationship between Capital University Law School and the Jamaica Dispute Resolution Foundation began almost 20 years ago when Jamaican government officials expressed concerns about the rise of violence in their country. Since then, the Law School and the staff of the Center for Dispute Resolution have worked with the Foundation to introduce and develop dispute resolution services. They worked with Jamaican officials and private leaders to engage in strategic planning, fund raising and grant writing. One of the earliest projects, funded by the Ford Foundation, established an island-wide dispute reso- lution program for the courts, communities and police. The Center staff also developed a mediation training manual and five training videos, which were filmed on-site in Jamaica and starred Jamaican nationals.

Throughout the years, representatives from the Center and Capital University have delivered speeches and made pre- sentations at various sites across Jamaica to increase pub- lic awareness of dispute resolution methods. Most recent- ly, Mitchell, Dewhirst and Wheeler presented and conduct- ed mediation workshops at the 2nd Caribbean Conference 9 on Dispute Resolution held in Kingston, Jamaica in May 2004. The conference, "Riding the Tides of Troubled Times: 21st Century Techniques for Reducing the Cost of Conflicts and Disputes," was hosted by the Jamaica Dispute Resolution Foundation in collaboration with the Mona School of Business. Following the conference, Dewhirst, Mitchell and Wheeler visited the Flankers and Hanover mediation centers located in Montego Bay and Lucea, respectively. Centers of Excellence

The Child Custody Unit offers legal represen- tation in contested child custody cases when family vio- lence has been involved.
