Cutting-Edge Experimental Dispute Prevention and Resolution

Who We Are

Community-Based Family Practice

The Advisory & Risk Management Bureau (ARMB) is part of Praxis Forum’s Neutral Third Party Services, which combine Alternative Dispute Resolution Methods with Public Relations Practice.

What We Do

Awareness Raising and Education

The ARMB focuses primarily on the Health Equity and Social Justice porfolio, by assisting communities in: developing and implementing strategies to manage risks, creating or amending existing regulations and standards; identifying, developing and implementings tools to improve the health, safety and socio-economic security of the population.

How We Do It

One Dimension, Multiple Channels.

Multi-layered strategies that combine preventative education, environmental changes, and legislative and policy actions enhance the long-term success and sustainability of interventions that combine a health equity and social justice objective.

Why We Do It

Our Beliefs and Values

Health equity and social justice are essential for fostering long-term, intergenerational community wellbeing, by addressing health inequities and reducing all forms of systemic injustice and violence through education, rather than using more invasive, aggressive or cohersive practices to treat diseases or illnesses, or to resolve contentious matters.

When and Where

Before is Better than After

Preventative and promotive interventions are most effective when implemented early, at the individual and community level, to address the social, economic, environmental, and behavioral determinants of health and justice.

Food Unites the Family

Restoring Natural Patterns.

Food is much more than nutrition, its culture, identity and medicine on a plate.

Food unites the family by acting as a sacred daily ritual that fosters bounding, communication, emotional security, thus strenghening relationships across many generations.

Sharing meals together as a family, on a daily basis, creates a safe and predictable space in which to entertain much needed conversations. At the same time, cooking together encourages collaboration and creativity, and the passing along of cultural traditions and secret family recipes.

Did you know that some of the most distructive conflicts happen right in the home and the community, between intimate partners, husbands and wives, brothers and sisters, and other close relatives?

Mismanaged or unresolved conflicts can have devastating long-term consequences on all family members, especially children and elders.

Traditional Dispute Prevention and Resolution Services

Conciliation

Communtiy-Based Conciliation is a process for helping disputing parties work through their issues by way of an informal, voluntary, confidential and non-adjudicative process that typically results in a settlement agreement which is binding on the parties. The conciliator is a neutral third-party, who is impartial and independent. The conciliator’s role is to provide disputing parties with a fair and equitable process in which to prevent the escalation of their matter, manage variances and reach a fair and reasonable settlement. The Community-Based Conciliation service is appropriate for dealing with a broad-range of issues involving private, corporate or commercial matters.

Mediation Service

Mediation is a voluntary, confidential, and informal process in which a neutral third party, the mediator assists disputing parties in reaching a mutually acceptable settlement of their issues. The core purpose of mediation is to facilitate communication and help the parties generate their own solutions, rather than having a decision imposed upon them by a judge or arbitrator.

Faciliation

The community is full of complex and delicate questions. Facilitation sessions are perfect for working through or debriefing some of the ugliest battles that communities may face in their daily endeavors. This service is open to community representatives and executives, and their personnel or members, conducting business under federal or provincial jurisdictions in Canada. Topics of discussion may include, but are not limited to; human rights issues, matters of consultation and accommodation, jurisdictional issues, funding frameworks and policies, public and private service contracts, employment contracts, and a wide range of issues in the workplace.

Neutral Investigation

Neutral investigation is a confidential and non-binding administrative process, designed to meet the operational needs and requirements of an organization, in terms of assessing and mitigating risk related to cases of misconduct, including psychological and sexual violence or harassment in the workplace.

Arbitration Service

Arbitration is a form of alternative dispute resolution where a neutral third party hears evidence from all sides and renders a final and binding decision. This process is typically private, less formal, and often faster and less expensive than traditional court litigation.
