ISS

Beginning in 2010, ISS developed a global programme focusing on International Family Mediation. This programme aims to protect children involved in parental conflicts across national borders. The project originated through a political will by States to use mediation as a mode for resolving contradictory legal rulings involving two or more countries. To strengthen the effectiveness of mediation, ISS conducts projects that inform and facilitate access to mediation among all actors involved in cross-border family conflicts: families, professionals and administrative and legal authorities. It recommends international family mediation as a reliable avenue that ensures individual rights and complements any legal proceedings to settle the disputes.
