Many of the dispute resolution specialists and centers listed in the Annex also provide training, for readers interested in strengthening their individual dispute resolution skills. All of the individuals and organizations listed in this set reviewed and commented on a draft version of this document. They were asked to provide the description of their organizational capabilities or individual experience, within a general framework. The descriptions provided therefore reflect their own sense of their abilities and capacity, rather than a judgement on the part of the review authors.
