Mediation
Mediation is part of Switzerland’s good offices and is one of the country’s foreign policy priorities. Switzerland may be requested to act as a mediator by conflicting parties themselves, or may offer its mediation services. It acts as a mediator itself or offer support to negotiating parties and to mediation efforts of others. Switzerland also seeks to promote the professionalisation of mediation in collaboration with the international community.
