CoRe - The Conflict Resolution Clinic at UBC

CoRe Conflict Resolution Society ("CoRe") is a non-profit registered charity which provides affordable mediation and conflict resolution services to the community, campus organizations at UBC, and non-profit organizations through the CoRe Clinic. CoRe was incorporated as a not-for-profit society in July 2002 and registered as a charity in December 2003.

CoRe mediations are conducted by two mediators: one professional mentor mediator, and one student mediator who has received training from the Program on Dispute Resolution at the UBC Faculty of Law, and who has participated in the Court Mediation Practicum program in BC Provincial Court. In this way, CoRe Clinic serves the public, while providing practical experience in collaborative dispute resolution processes to law students.

The CoRe Clinic receives varied referrals from a variety of sources, including the Law Students' Legal Advice Program (LSLAP). Some examples of the types of disputes that CoRe has mediated are:

*Under Rule 7.3 of the Small Claims Rules, parties to an action in Small Claims Court for an amount between $10,000 and $25,000 may elect to mediate their dispute.Our mediators all have Small Claims mediation experience and many of our mentors are Roster mediators for Rule 7.3 mediations. We can provide speedy and cost effective mediations for these disputes.

The Board of Directors plays an advisory role and participates in fundraising for the Society through the annual CoRe Challenge and other endeavours. Several board members offer their time as mentors for CoRe Clinic mediations, while others provide day-to-day mentoring for the Clinic's law student clinicians. Click here to find out more.
