1995: Develop your personal mediation style (taught by Randy Boychuck, Deborah White, Stacey Holloway, or Michael Fogel)
Forty years ago, something quietly remarkable began at the Justice Institute of British Columbia.
What started as a collection of conflict resolution courses became a movement— Canada's first post-secondary credential in conflict resolution. It drew on currents of social transformation already sweeping North America: a shared belief that conflict, handled differently, could be an opening rather than an ending. The early faculty who shaped this work didn't simply teach skills. They built a practitioner community, developed a distinctive pedagogical approach, and helped give language and form to an emerging field in conflict fluency.
Think of a moment — at work, at home, or in your community — when something you learned at the Centre changed how you showed up in a conflict. What happened, and what made the difference?
