In conflict and disaster areas, youth are burdened with increasing responsibility in their community while receiving little support or recognition from adults. In such situations, young people are faced with difficult choices in their struggle to survive and often mobilize themselves in a variety of ways. And therefore, these dynamic situations reflect the strengths and abilities that young people possess and are faced with on a daily basis. Their actions are being recognized, increasingly, by practitioners today, but are not thoroughly incorporated into the mainstream discussions.
All workshops will be interactive to ensure proper skills and knowledge transfer between all participants and attendees.
