Aiming to reach youth from all Palestinian sectors and areas, including villages and refugee camps, to study and discuss their various needs, the YMCA Youth Group leaders held a workshop in Dar-Salah, a village east of Bethlehem, with more than 25 youth in the ages between 15 and 18, on Wednesday the 19th of April 2006.
The youths came from three surrounding villages, Dar-Salah, Dar-Mubarak and Shawawra, and the workshop covered their youth needs in those areas, and suggested activities and programs to fulfill those needs.
The workshop is the first step in working with those groups, to be followed by scheduled programs and activities to implement with and for them, to empower them and enhance their abilities and self confidence, in addition to encouraging long term involvement in the YMCA youth group activities and work.
