حول المشروع:
In light of the social, economic, and political challenges facing Lebanon, youth remain a key driving force in shaping a cohesive and resilient future based on justice, diversity, and cooperation.
The Youth Gathering: Youth Inclusion and Active Citizenship project aims to bring together young people from different Lebanese regions, backgrounds, and communities in a safe and open space for dialogue and interaction. The gathering promotes the values of active citizenship, social responsibility, and belonging, while strengthening mutual trust and understanding among participants.
Through interactive and hands-on activities, participants learn how to work collectively despite their differences and collaborate on designing local development initiatives that respond to the needs of their communities.
