With generous support from German Federal Foreign Office, and as part of the project “Contribution to Inclusion and Social Cohesion In post-conflict Communities In Iraq Al-qosh- Shiekhan- Bashiqa”, a multi-field training initiative titled “Enhancing Inclusion and Social Cohesion through Youth Development” has been launched.

This initiative aims to equip young men and women with the necessary skills and knowledge to contribute to building more inclusive and cohesive communities in Iraq. The selected teams of youth received four intensive trainings covering a variety of topics including civil initiatives to promote social cohesion, workshops on identity and diversity, workshops on nurturing diversity citizenship, and training on Justice between men and women.

The four training sessions took place over a period of four days in each region and involved specialized experts in the relevant subjects. It is expected that these trainings will contribute to enhancing inclusion and social cohesion, empowering youth to be key stakeholders in shaping the future of their communities.
