Forum Theater in Zugdidi municipality

The updated composition of the Forum Theater continues the traditions of this unusual theatre.

In January, young actors visited Zugdidi municipality. Performances were held in two villages: Koki and Didi Nedzi. Spectators gathered in schools saw several scenes: about lovers, domestic violence, the relationship between mother and children. All scenes are taken from real life. That is why a certain part of the audience saw themselves in both positive and negative roles.

The audience was so active that there was inclusion in every scene followed by discussions.

One of the most important segments in the youth direction of the Women Fund "Sukhumi" is the activation of Youth Empowerment Centers.

Trainings are held monthly in 10 municipalities of Western Georgia. The working topics of the trainings in January were early marriages and ways to resolve conflicts. Topical issues caused discussions and thus made all the trainings even more interesting.

The first five trainings were held in Zugdidi, Samtredia, Tsalenjikha, Kobuleti and Terjola municipalities.

The knowledge gained during the trainings is disseminated by young people in their schools, towns and villages, thereby contributing to the reduction of conflicts and the prevention of violence.

Trainings in five municipalities

Bagdati, Vani, Kobuleti, Samtredia - trainings with youth of these four municipalities were held online and a meeting in Chokhatauri was held face-to-face.

The participants discussed the reasons of conflicts and the topic of tolerance. Live training is always remarkable by role- games and interesting work. Therefore, it was more effective.

“With the help of a specific game, we learned how information is distorted and lost. You helped to understand the reasons that cause conflicts,” said one of the participants.

In November, as in other months, trainings were held in Youth Empowerment Centers in 10 municipalities.
