Make Talk Work®
Bookmarks
The Make Talk Work® bookmark project consists of 24 bookmarks with tips on effective ways to manage talk with others. The bookmarks have been designed to provide the public with simple messages which draw on complex dispute resolution principles and processes. Regardless of the processes or techniques used by dispute resolvers, all dispute resolvers help to make talk work between and among individuals and groups. Since 9/11, the CUNY DRC has spearheaded a variety of public awareness educational projects as part of its Make Talk Work® initiative. All of the projects have been partnerships between the academic community and dispute resolution professionals. For the bookmark project, the partnership included the CUNY DRCand dispute resolvers in NYC with graphics designed by Susan Spivack and funding by the JAMS Foundation.
