It all happens after our meetings. One meeting / training is held per month and from training to training children express their views: what they have learned, what they like and what they worry about, in different ways.
Video clip, prepared by Samtredia Group, information meetings held by Zugdidi and Kobuleti groups and many else: diagrams, letters to parents, comics, videos, paintings, presentations...
We call these events initiative ones, because they reflect our training. The topics of the meetings held in the ten youth centers in February were: conflict, ethics, aesthetics, relationships of parents and children. The activities carried out by the leaders of the centers were also dedicated to these issues.
All activities are posted on the Facebook pages of the Fund "Sukhumi" and schools and the number of views is thousands ... 787 people took part in the activities. The activity would be much higher if the schools had not switched to online teaching. The youth direction of the Women Fund "Sukhumi" is still quite popular and this is the best result of our active work.
