🌟 Youth Workshops in Cairo and Bogota We are excited to share the highlights from the two most recent Youth Volunteer Workshops, held from April 16th to 19th in Bogotá, Colombia, and from April 29th to May 1st in Cairo, Egypt. In Bogotá, 60 volunteers from the Latin America and Caribbean regions came together, and just two weeks later in Cairo, 38 volunteers from the Arab States region gathered to attend these workshops. Each group brought their unique experiences and insights, creating a vibrant exchange of ideas. These workshops focused on empowering volunteers in developing their leadership skills, enhancing their conflict management abilities, encouraging intercultural sensitivity, and building a strong, lasting UNV community. Heartfelt thanks to all colleagues who made these events possible and to the volunteers who participated enthusiastically and dedicatedly. Inspiration meets action! |
