"Alternative Dispute Resolution Forum" is a forum where civil disputes are heard by by way of mediation, conciliation, arbitration or other customary ways. It is a means of getting an easy way out to the complicated legal procedures and a cost effective way of resolving disputes. The rationale behind resorting to ADR is to maintain the on going relationship between the parties in dispute. By Peterson KEWA (LLB-UPNG)- Trainee Lawyer (LTI -Papua New Guinea)

He does this by lowering tensions, improving communications, interpreting issues, providing technical assistance, exploring potential solutions and bringing about a negotiated settlement.Conciliation differs from mediation in that the main goal is to conciliate, most of the time by seeking concessions. In mediation, the mediator tries to guide the discussion in a way that optimizes parties needs, takes feelings into account and reframes representations.
