Preferred term

conciliation  

Definition

  • Conciliation is a form of dispute resolution in which the third party, a conciliator or a pair of conciliators, intervenes to help disputing parties reconcile or settle their differences. It is similar to mediation in that it relies on an informal process and the parties' willingness to compromise.
