TAPRI and the Peace programme were happy to welcome back Dr. Juan Díaz-Prinz as he returned to teach the first part of his intensive course on Peace Mediation and National Dialogues. The course is split into two sessions this year, with the first focusing more on introduction to the topic of mediation, conflict analysis and negotiation, and the other more on mediation and dialogue. As always, the course was interactive, with role-plays and simulations, and with interesting examples from the field and personal stories. Dr. Juan Díaz-Prinz will be back to TAPRI to teach the second part of the course on the 14th and 15th of November.
