With lockdowns around the world, mediators are turning to video conferencing to enable them to continue with their casework. But with security issues concerning the most popular platform, Zoom, and a Canadian University research unit warning against use of Zoom for confidential matters (and thus mediation) until changes have been made, big decisions have to be taken. In this episode, Graham Ross  takes a first look at what is likely to be a regular focus for at least a few weeks as well as interviews with leading mediators, Roger Levitt on co-mediation (where two mediators conduct the case) and Diana Wallis on the sensitive subject of compulsory mediation.
