Based on the experience acquired by 6 of the Project partners in the previous project MEDES 2015-1.ES01-KA201-015954, AdTransMEDES has faced the need for community schools to develop and implement tools that are able to prevent conflicts among students. The base of these tools, for our project, has been mediation. Project partners in France and Croatia identified the need of addressing school conflicts and acknowledge the potential of mediation tools developed with MEDES in this regard.
