"Securing better access to justice is one of the key objectives of the European Union’s policy to establish an area of freedom, security and justice. The objective of Directive 2008/52/EC is to promote the amicable settlement of disputes by encouraging the use of mediation and by ensuring a balanced relationship between mediation and judicial proceedings. In order to facilitate access to mediation as a viable alternative to the traditional adversarial approach, the directive introduces common principles addressing, in particular, aspects of civil procedure. The European Parliament considers it important to examine how this piece of legislation has been implemented by the Member States, to see what practitioners and users of mediation think of it and to identify whether and how it could be improved. For this purpose, a thorough analysis should, in my opinion, be conducted, in order to identify good practices and draw conclusions about any further action at European level. There is a need for increased awareness and understanding of mediation.
National authorities should be encouraged to develop programmes in order to promote adequate knowledge of alternative dispute resolution, and those actions should address the main advantages of mediation – cost, success rate and time efficiency. The effort to promote a better quality of mediation and to ensure high standards of professional training and accreditation across the Union is appropriate."@en1
