National and international experts, senior judges, and faculty members of Bhutan National Legal Institute (BNLI) are facilitating a training for private advocates on Nangkha Nangdrig or mediation skills in Thimphu.

Nangkha Nangdrig, an age-old ancestral and peaceful method of settlement of conflicts with the intervention of elders or wise people is still considered as one of the main dispute resolution systems in the country.

As a means to improve the facilitators of law, some twenty-five private advocates are undergoing a two-day workshop on mediating skills professionally, uniformly and ethically as part of the alternative dispute resolution system.

According to a press release from BNLI,  the Chief Justice of Bhutan said, “Nangkha Nangdrig system is the main dispute resolution system and the court or judicial system is the alternative system”.

The press statement said except for criminal cases, civil cases can be solved internally through mediation without having to involve the court. Mediation is informally and confidentially done when both parties agree to it. It is often quick, cost-effective, and more peaceful compared to court proceedings.

Jangchuk Norbu, Sr Legal Officer, Bhutan National Legal Institute said “Advocates are well educated regarding mediation and not just official laws. If we impart additional mediation knowledge and skill, they will be able to provide their services to the people well. One of the aspects is to let them share their experiences and knowledge among themselves. It is an opportunity for them to enhance their calibre and experience regarding mediation”.

BNLI said that after such training they hope that private advocates will provide ‘Pro Bono’ or free legal assistance to people who cannot afford a legal advisor.
