TC “Transformative Mindset for Sustainable Development”

Summary

This scenario underlines the critical need for effective conflict transformation strategies to mitigate the impacts on vulnerable populations, particularly the youth, and foster sustainable development. To achieve lasting progress, it is imperative to engage communities in shaping and executing initiatives that drive sustainable development. To do so, we need community-driven initiatives and these are best realized through the Conflict Transformation Approach because it informs strategic programming of initiatives that can foster comprehensive sustainable development. Hence, this training aims to equip youth workers with the Conflict Transformation Approach and its elements such as conflict analysis, planning of initiatives, dialogue, design thinking, and negotiation for resolutions.
