The Women Fund “Sukhumi” successfully implemented the training course "Conflict Management and Violence Prevention" in 10 target municipalities of Western Georgia for 6 months. The project introduced young people to issues of equality, tolerance, peaceful ways of conflict resolution and violence prevention.
The sixth month was devoted to summing up the results. Young leaders demonstrated positive changes through presentations:
- I felt most comfortable in this environment. I listened to them, they listened to me, and my confidence grew;
- I overcame my complexes;
- I advise my peers to get informal education, which will help to increase civic responsibility and achieve success;
- We learned how to make society empathetic regarding the problems of violence and conflicts.
The final events were held in Tsalenjikha, Tskaltubo, Senaki, Samtredia, Vani municipalities, and will be continued in other municipalities.

“It’s important for us to have a space where we can talk about all topics that don’t fit into the lesson format. We get to know each other’s thoughts and can share our knowledge with others. It helps to prevent conflict and violence”. - These are the words of one of the training participants.
Training courses actively continue at the Youth Empowerment Centers. Trainings on the reasons of conflicts, gender equality and stereotypes were held in Khobi and Tsalenjikha municipalities.
During the trainings, actual topics are discussed and initiated events are organized. Young people have a high interest in non-formal education and motivation to work.
