inAccord Conflict Analysis Model
We have developed an accessible model of mediation and arbitration training that allows you to measure the efficacy of your work by employing a simple four stage model with easy to use forms for analysis.
Created by President Shauna Ries and renowned Research Professor, Dr. Susan Harter, in collaboration with statistician Shauna Rienks, PhD, this project will involve you in an international study measuring the efficacy of the inACCORD model of conflict analysis.
Mediators without Borders Society members have access to inAccord survey instruments. Using Qulatrax survey tools, you will be able to use handheld data capture, eliminating paper handling to collect data from your mediation sessions. This data will be transmitted to MwB as part of ongoing enhancements of the inAccord model.
