Mediation has been practiced in Iran for years. Usually, the elders of communities who were experienced and trusted by people had enough influence for conflict resolution and implementing Traditional Mediation, so they were often called “white-beard” or “white-hair.” The traditional mediators of communities would try to make peace between conflict parties by the help of customs, and religious teachings. Their status in communities gave them this opportunity to ensure the parties are fully dedicated to the agreements resulting from mediation. This kind of mediation would easily carry out in low populations and uncomplicated communities because people know each other and their families, and most of them are related. Since cities got bigger and more complex and communities and people got apart, the influence of traditional mediation has decreased and limited to rural regions and small communities.
