MBBI—New York

Mediators Beyond Borders International —New York Regional Group (MBBI—NY) was founded to engage and connect New York’s diverse and passionate peacebuilders. The Group brings together teachers, attorneys, academics, psychologists, designers, authors, activists and UN civil servants (to name just a few) to work on local and global projects that build capacity, facilitate dialogue and empower our partners in sustainable conflict resolution and smart, inclusive mediation policy.

MBBI—NY Group members:

• Represent MBBI at the United Nations;
• Negotiate for the inclusion of mediation language in Climate Change Policy;
• Partner with Rotary International on global peacebuilding projects;
• Facilitate NY-based Conflict Resolution Trainings & Workshops; and
• Advocate in support of sensitive, sustainable conflict resolution.
