The aim of this study is to examine various types of mediators (UN, inter-governmental organizations, states, NGOs, individuals) in relation to the needs of complex contemporary peace processes. The authors examine where mediators become engaged (e.g., close or far from home, what type of conflict), how they engage (e.g., degree of impartiality, leverage, sustainability, knowledge, humility, credibility, flexibility) and why they engage (value-based or interest-based, or both). This study is a special offprint of the CSS publication Switzerland's Civilian Peace Support: Inventory and Development Potential (Zivile Friedensförderung der Schweiz: Bestandesaufnahme und Entwicklungspotenzial, Zurich Contributions to Security Policy No. 83).
