On the 29th May, we worked together with Nyakuron East Indigenous Youth Association to empower the community youth on “The role of Youth in combating violence with the community”.
More than 20 youth received training to empower them be champions of peace. One of the biggest threats in Juba is the “Gang groups and torontos”, led by youth.
The practical workshop facilitated by Gizam Moses was to understand causes of conflicts and identify best solutions from the youth.
Our monthly meet-ups are to bring a new energy and solutions to the issues affecting our communities and we are glad for the support through the U.S. Embassy Juba, South Sudan to building the capacities of the youth in #Tech4Peace ( #DigitalSkills ) and Entrepreneurship skills.
We will continue to work with and support other youth associations who want to see change in their communities.
