This two-year training program aims to promote peace through 10 training modules, mainly aimed at strengthening youth leadership and raising awareness about the importance of positive changes in the communities.
The program involves a wide range of leaders, experts, and specialists, while also reinforcing ties with the network of Young Peace Ambassadors from previous cohorts to build the capacities of youth and women in sustainable development and peace, and to promote social cohesion and coexistence.
ICESCO’s Leadership Training in Peace and Security, whose previous editions have yielded 87 youth projects and hundreds of activities, forms part of the Organization’s “360° Peace” approach. This comprehensive, multidisciplinary framework seeks to promote sustainable peace by addressing key development areas and implementing hundreds of initiatives aimed at advancing the values of peace, dialogue, and citizenship.
