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.
The JAI has organized a training for 14 boys and girls, through the EJ YMCA - Beit Sahour branch, on the 27th and 28th of June 2016, within its ongoing Democratic Citizenship Program.
The training focused on citizenship, boycott campaign and its criteria, and human rights.
