The publication examines the evolution of family mediation in Canada, addressing the realities faced by parents and families navigating separation and divorce. Over three days, more than 60 experts from multiple countries and disciplines—including social work, psychology, law, the judiciary, government, and law enforcement—shared perspectives on restructuring family relationships and supporting children during periods of transition.
This interdisciplinary volume offers both historical context and forward-looking insights into family mediation practices, highlighting challenges, emerging approaches, and collaborative solutions. It serves as a reference for professionals working with families, as well as for those interested in the development of mediation frameworks within the Canadian context.
