ABSTRACT
Because of the unique challenges and complexities presented by transnational marriages, the importance of mediation for resolving disputes in such families has become more and more recognized; there is an increasing need for skilled professionals who can navigate cultural, linguistic, and legal differences to facilitate effective communication between multicultural/transnational spouses. This article assumes to bring a unique body of knowledge and set of skills to the field based on the researcher’s own skills and experience. This combination presents an especially informing role of the mediator in resolving disputes in transnational marriages. The article suggests a model for effective transnational mediation and introduces a figure of such a transnational mediator. However, there is a pressing need for more research on the subject of transnational mediation and dispute resolution.
