In June, traditionally, trainings will be held in the Youth mpowerment Centers of 10 municipalities. This time we will speak about four meetings: work with the youth of Tsalenjikha, Vani and Bagdati municipalities took place online and the training in Zugdidi was live, active, full of exercises.

72 participants of the four meetings were actively involved in the discussion of topical issues - conflict escalation and gender-based violence. For majority of them, "escalation" was an unfamiliar word, but they remembered it at once.

Girls and boys discussed, argued, expressed their opinions. After the trainings, they began to conduct the so-called initiated events - in this way they demonstrate their knowledge and skills to their peers and this is the best result of working with young people.

I am Sofiko Kukhalashvili, born in 1992, an IDP from Abkhazia. I live in Khoni. I want to briefly tell you about my small business, which I have done myself. In 2017 I visited the village and my grandmother gave me one small pig, thus my small business started. This little pig, that I had to raise and then kill, was female. When it grew up to 7 months and it was very good, I changed my mind to kill it and decided to breed it…so I did. I made cross-breeding. I had small pigs 4 months after breeding. I was very happy. Somehow their care and patronage became very interesting and enjoyable for me.

Then I decided to start farm business. I was able to make a small building where I housed the pigs. I needed my parents'financial assistance. After arranging this building my success in the farm business started. There was not only one mother pig in this building, but at least 10. Then I started to find out where I could find good pigs to be a successful farmer and get the best results. In addition I had to learn their food ration as well as suitable medicines. I found everything on the internet and learned from farmers, who had more experience in this field.

  • - It is interesting for us to be involved in this project, we share our experience, which helps us to present problematic issues correctly and to figure out ways of their solution.

    - It is good when practical work and theory are combined. Today I realized how important informing, relevant skills and experience are.

    The participants thus expressed interest in the training topic.

    The training was held in Tskaltubo with members of the IDP Women Initiative Group.

    The participants received information about the meetings organized on the principle of "one window". It became clear to them why it is important to apply the "one window" principle, who is the responsible / relevant agency, who can be the beneficiary and how the meeting will be conducted.

    The training process was conducted by discussing live examples.
