6th Annual Congress in Istanbul, Turkey, Fall 2013

Mediators Beyond Borders International (MBBI) continues to prepare for our 6th Annual
Congress in Istanbul in 2013. About 30 MBBI members are working on various ommittees,
and 60 people from 9 countries have said they are planning to attend. We have received a
commitment of involvement from the Turkish Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and are working
closely with William Ury’s Abraham’s Path organization.
Because of the complexities involved in holding our first Congress outside North America, the Congress Coordinating Committee, co-chaired by Steve Goldsmith and MBBI Board Member  Deniz Kite, recommended, and the MBBI Board of Directors has approved, moving the dates of the 2013 Congress from late April to September 26, 27, 28, 2013.
