International Young Forum about "Peace Building, Tolerance and Integration"
Forum for Progressive Initiative is organizing a TC as International Young Forum about conflict resolution to explore / share common values for Peace building and inter-ethnic reconciliation & Integration, towards a mutual peaceful, democratic society.
This training course wants to face different participants from different countries to treat some key features of democracy see and advance their opinions and attitudes in rapport of dealing with different ethnicities and working together with one another for a common bright and perspective future despite of a bitter past.
This way, we would share and promote a platform with modern and significant values and approaches which might be a model for conflict resolution especially by NGO-s which might have very important role in policy making and active citizenship.
It's very interesting the participation from some post conflict countris to exchange their practices and also we would get a direct reflection from minorities of different societies which is very relevant for a broad sense of current political and social developments.
