Youth Co-creation Session on Nonviolence
A cohort of Youth leaders will work over a one-month period to brainstorm, collaborate with each other, and connect with experts in devising a Strategy document that seeks to address violence and its manifestations in society.
Upon completion of the event, the participants will be expected to share a plan of action envisaging a self-led project which seeks to implement any Youth-led Strategy and receive advisory inputs from The World House Project.
Through active feedback and networking, the Co-creation session hopes to inculcate pragmatic thinking and an increased awareness among the Youth regarding their potential as initiators of peaceful action.
Thus, the Co-creation session aims to fulfill the essence of The Turning Point Summit, 2022 by enabling the Youth to create meaningful change within themselves and their communities.
