activities
The project develops solution-oriented negotiation techniques for experts, college graduates, students and high school graduates. As part of the Harvard Law School's legal training program, it offers two one-week courses in negotiation every year. The aim of the Harvard principle is to separate factual and relationship levels, balance interests and look for decision alternatives using neutral assessment criteria in order to create a win -win situation for everyone involved . Programs in Europe are mediated by Egger, Philips & Partner in Zurich.
Among other things, the project has contributed to the so-called one-text process that the United States used in the Middle East peace negotiations at Camp David in September 1978.
