Joan Braun has been retained as a consultant on an Elder Guardianship Mediation Research Project being carried out by the Canadian Centre on Elder Law.

As well, researchers in the Multi-Disciplinary Research Hub are carrying out research on the multi-party aspect of Elder Guardianship Mediation with a view to creating a practical “made in BC” model of service delivery.  BC’s successful child protection mediation program is being used as a loose template due to similarities in the multi-disciplinary aspect, guardianship and capacity issues and familial power dynamics.
