“Potential Consequences of Conflict and Styles of Behavior in a Conflict Situation” - this topic was discussed at online workshops with members of the conflict management group schools of the village Khajhalia (Lanchkhuti municipality), school No. 2 - village Liya (Tsalenjikha municipality) and school No. 5 in Kobuleti.

The participants learned the meaning of win-win, win-loss and loss-win, in what situation the concretet style is acceptable, how to avoid a conflict situation, when to compromise or cooperate.

They noted that these issues were an innovation for them, and the conflict experts explained everything in detail. The members are waiting for the next online meeting to learn more about this actual topic.

In November, the International Campaign "16 Active Days Against Gender-based Violence" begins. Youth clubs of 10 municipalities of Western Georgia are actively involved in the campaign. Before the start of the campaign, online working meetings with the leaders of the Youth Clubs were held and plans of activities were discussed. Young people have interesting ideas, and their activity will be demonstrated during 16 days.

A video lesson on the topic of escalation posted on the Facebook page of the Fund "Sukhumi" had a lot of responses. Workshop participants familiarized themselves with the topic in advance. Then - during online work - members of the conflict management groups of schools in the villages: Melauri (Samtredia municipality), Menji (Senaki municipality) and Khajalia (Lanchkhuti municipality) discussed this issue more actively.

In addition to theoretical materials, they are interested in practical examples - they are worried about the tension regarding the elections, they did not leave without attention the issue of Armenian - Azerbaijanian conflict.

Workshop participants noted that they were unfamiliar with the term “escalation”, but now they know the essence of this word and want to learn more about conflict resolution. They will also participate in the information campaign “16 active days against gender- based violence”.

When discussing the topic of violence, adolescents draw parallels with stereotypes and traditions that represent women as subordinates. That is why these questions were discussed at the meetings of the Youth Clubs: “Forms of violence. Equal society. Traditions and Stereotypes”.

After each meeting, the motivation of groups and the desire to actively participate in the process of preventing violence grows more and more.

The meetings were held online with the Youth Clubs of the schools No. 5 in Kobuleti, No. 12 in Kutaisi and the village Pakhulani (Tsalenjikha municipality).
