In Málaga, Spain Asociación PROJUVEN brought young people together for a workshop that focused on conflict resolution across cultures and generations. The event followed their participation in the Sicily-based training.

  • Explore youth reconciliation through intercultural exchange.
  • Practice conflict transformation skills.
  • Encourage respectful listening and open communication.
Key Activities
  • Culture Circles – Small groups shared customs and values to identify common ground.
  • What Would You Do? – Interactive roleplay with scenarios of conflict and reconciliation.
  • Wall of Words – Youth added words that represent peace, unity, and healing in their languages.
