New Wave of Youth for Change

In 10 municipalities of Western Georgia, youthful energy has flared up again – a new era, new groups, and new ideas have begun! In frames of the project, groups of young participants have been formed, who will undergo a series of trainings on conflict management and violence prevention over the next six months.

The initial meetings were characterized by warmth, trust, and activism. For young people, this space has become a place where they can speak frankly and then act – against violence together with their peers.

During the discussions, young people share their experiences, learn peaceful conflict resolution, respectful communication, and ways to recognize and prevent violence.

"I understand that change starts with me. I want my friends to understand the importance of peaceful relationships and mutual understanding," said one participant.

The young people want to use the knowledge they have gained in their daily lives, creating an environment where conflicts are resolved through dialogue and violence has no place.

The project is implemented with the support of the organization Brot
