The Matsunaga Institute for Peace and Conflict Resolution, in partnership with the ADR Section of the Hawaii State Bar Association, the Association for Conflict Resolution Hawaii Chapter, and the Mediation Center of the Pacific, presents a free webinar titled “Technology Tools for Conflict Resolution Professionals”.

DESCRIPTION
Looking for ways to enhance collaborative processes? Reduce paper waste? Increase efficiency? Encourage equal participation?

In recent years, a number of useful online tools and apps have been developed that you can incorporate into your work as a conflict resolution professional.

There will be a limited number of spots available to participate in the webinar face-to-face at the Mediation Center for the Pacific. If you would like to attend the live event, be sure to register as soon as possible – spots are available on a first-come-first-serve basis only.
