Join the Austin Mediators Association for an ethics-focused discussion with Nadia Bettac and Robert O’Keefe on recognizing and addressing gender bias in mediation. This discussion will explore implicit and explicit bias within mediation, how mediators can maintain neutrality and professionalism when gender bias presents with mediation parties.

Please notice this meeting begins at 11:30 for networking and lunch. We will have a very short annual meeting, including the election of Austin Mediators Association Board members for 2026. Lunch will be provided at no fee for registered attendees. 1 hour of mediator continuing education, including 1 hour of ethics for attendees
