Victim-offender mediation is increasingly used around
the world as a way of dealing with crime. The growing
attention for victim-offender mediation and the benefits
it has to offer instigated the call for principles and rules
governing the practice of penal mediation. This has
led to the development of international protocols that
promote and facilitate the institutionalisation and use of
victim-offender mediation. One of the key elements of
these protocols is the principle of confidentiality, which
requires the secrecy of everything that is said and done
during a mediation session. This broad interpretation of
this principle may, however, cause problems in practice,
especially since penal mediation can take place within
the context of criminal and civil law.

This book reports on a research project which studied
the appropriate level of confidentiality that should
apply to mediation-delivered information, regarding the
out-of-court setting and the judicial context. Various
exceptions to the high level of confidentiality that
should apply to the issues discussed in mediation are
developed. Additionally, it is explained how the thus
advocated scope of the principle of confidentiality
should be implemented in practice.
