Engagement: Community Mediation: Intergenerational: Peer Services
Community Engagement
Community Engagement is "a dynamic relational process that facilitates communication, interaction, involvement, and exchange between people and the community for a range of social and organisational outcomes".
We use an ethical, reflective, and socially responsive approach in engagement practices with the aim of helping people to be understanding and responsive to community needs, views, and expectations.
Peer Mediation
A program and process where children or students of the same age group facilitate resolving issues or disputes, which can be between two people or small age groups.
We see this as a positive intervention for schools and young institutes, and a great way to invest in a future of positive conflict resolution in the areas we work in.
The Benefits Can Include:
Reduced disciplinary actions & fewer fights, improved self-esteem, listening and critical thinking skills, as well as skills transferable outside the classroom. The Peer process can deal with bullying, minor assaults & fighting, as well as gossiping, social media improprieties, relationship difficulties, harassment, stealing and vandalism.
The A Project trains your selected students to become peer mediators, once accredited (College of Mediators Award) we then support and supervise them to deliver mediation services to students throughout the school/college.
