The training was facilitated by Ms. Angbeen Mirza, who engaged participants through interactive sessions focused on Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR), dispute analysis, negotiation, mediation, and community-based approaches to accessing justice.
Throughout the two days, participants remained highly engaged and actively contributed to the discussions and learning activities. Their participation, questions, and reflections made the sessions interactive and productive. Participants also appreciated the training, and the practical knowledge and skills gained through the sessions.
With 35 participants the training contributed to strengthening the capacity of community representatives to better understand ADR mechanisms and support individuals in identifying appropriate pathways for resolving disputes peacefully.
The training reflects the importance of community-based and accessible justice mechanisms in promoting peaceful dispute resolution and improving access to justice across the diverse and remote communities of Gilgit-Baltistan.
