2012 Conflict Resolution Symposium

Join new and seasoned Conflict Resolution practitioners as well as undergraduate and graduate students as they network, discuss significant trends of the field, and meet and mentor emerging leaders. This year's theme is: "From Chaos to Composure: Creating Positive Change Using Conflict Resolution Skills." Professionals will be discussing how conflict resolution skills impact the change process. We hope participants will leave the symposium empowered to integrate their skills in their work as agents of change!
