Abstract
This paper seeks to explore the intersection of mediation and artistic and
embodied practices used in peacebuilding contexts, particularly applied
theatre, by describing the theoretical underpinnings of both and examining
their combined practical application. We will do this in part by examining
findings from a workshop utilizing applied theatre techniques to engage
mediators in discussion on 1) systems of professional support and 2)
combining more artistic and embodied approaches to their own work.
Overall workshop findings indicate that mediators are receptive and
interested in using more embodied and non-verbal approaches within their
practice.
