Dunedin Community Mediation provides an opportunity for individuals or organisations in conflict to resolve their issues by finding mutually agreeable solutions.
- Problems and disagreements happen in the community between neighbours, clubs, families and other groups.
- People try to sort things out but sometimes they just can’t and relationships suffer.
- Our aim is to provide good quality mediation to help solve disagreements
- Most mediations are free.

COVID-19 update: other mediation options being explored
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic and the restrictions on physical distancing, we are currently not able to offer face-to-face mediation. However, we are exploring other mediation options, including audio-visual mediations and initial one-to-one support (via Zoom).
We continue to welcome your inquiries regarding our service.
Please contact the Dunedin Community Mediation Manager via this website, or by email at dcmediate@gmail.com
