Conflict Resolution Day is October 19, 2017

The Association for Conflict Resolution (“ACR”), invented Conflict Resolution Day to achieve four goals:

1. Promote awareness of mediation, arbitration, conciliation and other creative, peaceful means of resolving conflict;

2. Promote the use of conflict resolution in schools, families, businesses, communities, governments and the legal system;

3. Recognize the significant contributions of (peaceful) conflict resolvers; and

4. Obtain national synergy by having celebrations happen across the country and around the world on the same day.
