“The world has no shortage of conflict. But there’s a shortage of people well-trained in finding creative and effective ways of addressing conflict. I am proud of the work we are doing at Oregon’s ADR Center. We are making a difference for students, clients, communities, and organizations.”
– Professor Michael Moffitt ADR Associate Director Co-editor of The Handbook of Dispute Resolution, the "essential, cutting-edge reference" for dispute resolution |

Competition Not ConflictCompetition Not Conflict (CNC) promotes positive competition by empowering athletes, coaches, and community members to understand, prevent, and resolve conflict. CNC, at the University of Oregon, combines big-time athletics with world-class academics to change conflict's footprint in sports. "No game is won or lost on game day. Sustained success in sports comes from understanding that life is a process and the skills we learn from participating in competitive sports inform that process. CNC understands this process and focuses on promoting positive alternatives to conflict that surface in competitive sports at all levels." Watch the CNC Trailer
