Conflict resolution refers to the structured process of addressing, managing, and settling disagreements between individuals, groups, or organizations. It focuses on understanding underlying interests, improving communication, and finding mutually acceptable solutions. Methods can include negotiation, mediation, facilitation, or arbitration, depending on the severity and context of the dispute. Effective conflict resolution aims to reduce tension, prevent escalation, and preserve or rebuild relationships. It is widely used in workplaces, families, communities, and international relations. Core principles often involve active listening, empathy, fairness, and collaboration so that all parties feel heard and can commit to a sustainable agreement.
