Website of the Month: Medios Alternativos de Resolucion de Conflictos

Medios Alternativos de Resolucion de Conflictos is maintained by the Justice Studies Centre of the Americas. The website is a centralized clearinghouse of information on governmental and non-governmental activities in alternative dispute resolution throughout the Americas. This covers the entire spectrum of alternative dispute resolution (ADR) including programmes in criminal justice. The page is currently available only in Spanish, although there are plans to publish an English language version.

The site offers four searchable databases for locating information throughout the region. These include: 

Registro de Centros de MARC (Registry of Alternative Dispute Resolution Centres)- provides information on centres offering ADR throughout Latin America and the Caribbean. Broken down by country, the list provides descriptions and contact information for the centres. 

Legislación (Legislation) provides access to legislative documents from the region. The database is searchable by type of document, country, or keyword. 

Documentos (Documents) provides information about papers, studies, and other documents dealing with ADR. Many full-text documents are available. The database is searchable by document type, author, title, file type, or keyword. 

Vínculos (Links) is a database of web pages dealing with ADR.
