Alternative dispute resolution means "resolving a dispute using an appropriate process. In the field of dispute resolution there are a broad spectrum of techniques available for resolving disputes outside the traditional administrative, judicial or legislative decision-making processes. For example arbitration, collaborative problem-solving, consensus-building, negotiation, facilitation, mediation and conciliation. These processes generally involve an impartial person referred to as a "third party", regardless of the number of parties involved in the dispute."
