Young Visionaries Project DetailsFebruary 2009

“Dear Peace Direct,

We have decided to work with 3 groups; from Colombo, Ampara (East) and Anuradhapura (North Central) with 5 -6 Young Visionaries per group. The three groups will undergo three sets of four day training workshops on the following themes:

1) Conflict Transformation and Peace building

2) Project designing and implementing

3) Facilitating

Project duration : 1 year

Follow-up activities after the training is complete:

• Each young visionary will train a minimum of 2 peers (multipliers)


• Each team will design and implement community peace-building project/s depending on budget available, to address underlining needs within their localities. More prominence will be given to these projects as these will enable them to put the theoretical knowledge into practice.


• 2 sets of exchanges: The fellow groups will visit both Ampara and Anuradhapura groups when they are implementing projects.

Best regards,

Chami
