FDRIO Unconference 2018

UNCONFERENCE HIGHLIGHTS

Unconference 2018 highlights diversity, inclusion, cultural understanding and innovation in FDR.

We set the bar high at FDRIO, and our second bi-annual unconference exceeded all expectations!

“FDRethink The Future” brought out a standing-room only crowd who interacted with our presenters, shared new ideas, and went home energized and enthusiastic.

Highlights of the day included:

• the exceptional presentation on diversity and inclusion in family mediation, arbitration and parenting coordination by the exceptional Larissa Crawford.
  • a huge circle led by Aboriginal Legal Services, demonstrating aboriginal conflict resolution principles, one so powerful that participants were brought to tears;
  • the Diversity Forum dialogue that engaged many members and guests in a thoughtful “next steps” reflection.
• the delightful reflections of Madam Justice Gloria Epstein of the Ontario Court of Appeal.

More than 30 speakers shared professional insights and opinions about FDR, fostering a warm and safe environment to explore new pathways for the future of FDR.

We hope you enjoyed the event, and we look forward to seeing you in 2020!
