Will CHALMERS - International Mediation Awareness Week
Will Chalmers is the Founder and CEO of Mediator Network and is a leader in the mediation services space. He has built and continues to develop a global professional network of mediators.
Will is driven by the need to better educate the public about mediation and encourage as many people to use this form of dispute resolution. Will studied law, having obtained the Law LLB (Hons) from the University of Surrey, and has a background in both the legal and education sectors. During this time, and before founding Mediator Network, he built up a free to use regional legal advice service with 70+ lawyers and which helped more than 1,000 people per year with legal advice and guidance.
Mediator Network – which will established - supports mediators with business development, peer support, promotional activities, and professional support services. During his time as CEO, Will has brought platforms and activities such as International Mediation Awareness Week (IMAW), Find-aMediator, better peer support, and simplified access to mediation services across the globe.
He is passionate about helping the next generation of practitioners to succeed and working with other organisations around the world to put mediation firmly on the map.
