This program targets the feeling of helplessness among Palestinain youth in order to give a platform for them to be empowered and regain their confidence in themselves as they do in their own generation.
Youth can be the power of lobbying to address issues that range from local social services to national issues on poverty, unemployment, democracy, national concerns and even politics.
Training in the fields of civics, leadership Lobbying and advocacy, is a must and it definitely gives the tools needed for better influence and greater impact. It is educating the Palestinian youth in order to serve their national aspiration of independence and freedom.
A training session was organized by the JAI on Friday the 27th of January 2017 for 10 youths, members of the Palestinian Youth Ecumenical Movement.
The training focused on the concept of leadership, and how to be an active leader in your community, with the required characteristics and skills.
