Elective Courses
NATURAL RESOURCE DISPUTE RESOLUTION
LAW 613
3 credits

Professor Matthew McKinney

This course develops practical skills in multi-party negotiation, collaboration, and consensus building as applied to natural resource and environmental issues. It will help students determine when negotiation or collaboration is most appropriate; how to design public processes that are inclusive, informed, and deliberative; and how to adapt these principles to public participation, community-based collaboration, administrative rulemaking, environmental impact assessment, resource planning, and legislative policymaking. Using a series of simulation and interactive exercises, students will become more effective participants in multi-party processes, and will become more familiar with the value of impartial, nonpartisan facilitators and mediators.
