Selecting the representative negotiators for each party

• Representatives will be selected by a process with public input and/or voting.

• Representatives must be committed to upholding the human rights of all parties.
• Representatives must be prepared to make reasonable compromises for the good of humanity.

Negotiation process

• The negotiation process will not have any pre-conditions.
• The negotiation process will not have any pre-determined outcomes.
• The negotiation process will adhere to these standards:

1. The final accord will be actionable, conclusive, realistic, detailed, reject maximalism, serve the needs of all parties, and be resilient to acts of terrorism or violence.
2. The final proposal may take place in phases to build confidence and strengthen democratic institutions.
3. Any phases in the final proposal will have a specific and well-defined time-table.

• The negotiation process will be conducted similar to an arbitration, on a strict time table of a maximum of 2 years.
• All briefing materials will be made public.
• The representatives will direct a team of advisors, experts, and assistants to prepare briefings.
• The briefing schedule will be as follows:

1. Each party will submit an opening brief which will describes their position in the negotiations. The opening briefs may include: historical references, grievances, proposals, maps, arguments, and references to international laws.
2. Each party will then submit a reply brief to answer or refute the proposals presented by the other party.
3. The parties will then submit briefings, and replies, regarding all issues (see below).
4. A draft proposal will be compiled by a neutral 3rd-party addressing all issues and resolving any deadlocked issues.
5. The parties will submit response briefs in regards to each draft proposal.
6. The draft proposal will be revised for a maximum of 6 months and then a final proposal for the accord will be released.
