The American Bar Association has created an online database of opinions on mediator ethics. The opinions are categorized by by the nine standards in the Model Standard of Conduct for Mediators, many of which are relevant to Ombuds practice:- Self-Determination
- Impartiality
- Conflicts of Interest
- Competence
- Confidentiality
- Quality of the Process
- Advertising and Solicitation
- Fees and Other Charges
- Advancement of Mediation Practice
I hope that, someday, there will be a similar collection of opinions defining the practices of the Ombuds profession too.
