Symposium 2022
The 2022 Melnick Annual Symposium:
The Death and Resurrection of Dialogue
On Friday, March 11, 2022, the Cardozo Journal of Conflict Resolution hosted the Melnick Annual Symposium on “The Death and Resurrection of Dialogue.”
This Symposium examined the potential of the news media to develop public discourse and prevent conflict, the importance of dialogue and civic engagement in community building, methods to bridge inequalities in communities and in mediation, and the effect of virtual and caucus-only mediation on conflict resolution.
The Journal also presented the twenty-first annual International Advocate for Peace Award to William Ury, co-founder of Harvard’s Program on Negotiation and one of the world’s leading experts on negotiation and mediation. Ury is the co-author with Roger Fisher and Bruce Patton of Getting to Yes, a fifteen-million-copy bestseller translated into over thirty-five languages, and the author of Getting Past No, The Power of a Positive No, The Third Side, and, most recently, the award-winning Getting to Yes with Yourself.
