Abstract

The International Conference held at Maynooth University in September, 2014, Creative Responses to Conflict through Mediation and Restorative Practice, brought together a diverse and outstanding gathering of scholars, practitioners and researchers who offered papers and workshops that represent the breadth and scope of the field of conflict intervention. The presenters described applications of techniques and strategies that reflect the field’s vitality, resourcefulness and imagination.
In the winter issue of this Journal, the editors presented articles solicited from conference presenters, and in this second special issue, we present an additional seven pieces from authors, who presented workshops and papers.
