competitions, is the product of the 'village' of dispute professionals and competition alumni who throw themselves headfirst into training and supporting the team year after year. The team is looking forward to defending its title in Paris 2020, led by coaches and accredited mediators with Resolution Institute, Tunisia Napia and Rima Shenoy. The team and coaching community are proud of the tradition that they have built over many years of participation in the mediation advocacy competitions. This tradition sees promising students develop into fierce mediation advocates and, in time, professional mediators. The team is seeking sponsorship to enable it to continue to participate in the competition. If you are interested in discussing further, please contact the coaches Tunisia Napia ([email protected]) and Rima Shenoy ([email protected]). "Participating in the mediation advocacy competition has been the highlight of my time at law school. It has shaped me as an individual and completely changed the way I see the world. The skills that I have developed, the mediation community that has taught me and the opportunity to interact with people from all around the world has been a once-in-a-lifetime experience.” - Benjamin Seto, Melbourne 2019 team member
