The MAS ETH MPP focuses on developing the competency of mediation experts: those who work behind the scenes to help parties engaged in violent political conflict to reach a peace agreement.
MAS ETH Mediation in Peace Processes Vision The MAS ETH MPP seeks to contribute to more effective peace processes and thus a more peaceful and secure world. It enhances the professionalisation of mediation by enabling MAS graduates to design and run mediation processes using the latest theoretical, methodological and practical techniques in mediation. It provides strategic partners from the public and civilian spheres (e.g., states, international and regional organisations, non-governmental organisations) with a programme to strengthen cooperation and mediation capacities, thus professionalising the field of mediation.
