The RESOLVE team has particular expertise in the application of mediation and other consensus building processes to complex public policy issues in the areas of drinking water, energy, environmental quality, health and biotechnology, land-use and transportation, natural resources, and rivers and watersheds.
The characteristics of these issues require competence in the dynamics of multi-party negotiations as well as expertise in working with substantial scientific uncertainty and technical complexity, cultural diversity, values conflicts, and the intricacies of policy making and judicial processes. In addition, RESOLVE team members are skilled in research and evaluation, strategic consultation and capacity building – all of which contribute to meeting our clients’ needs and to building bridges between research and practice.
