About the Award
This award can be conferred to a dispute resolution practitioner in any context or to someone whose work is in support of dispute resolution. It can also be given to an organisation that satisfies the award criteria.
We are seeking to award individuals or organisations who have gone “above and beyond” in their service to dispute resolution, where their work has enriched or enhanced dispute resolution development, theory, practice, or context. As part of the nomination process, we request that the type of ‘Service’ be defined, and it will be noted on the award. Some examples could be an extensive contribution to research, publishing, advocacy, education/training, or professional development, growing dispute resolution in a particular sector, supporting or building cultural competence or inclusion within the DR community in Australia, New Zealand or from abroad, or providing significant contribution to peacebuilding.
The ‘Service to dispute resolution’ can be awarded to both Resolution Institute members and non-members.
A nomination requires two nominators, each providing detail of the nominee’s achievement.
