The training concluded with reflections on how each session—from role plays to conflict mapping—interconnected to strengthen participants’ capacity as peacebuilders. This initiative enhanced the capacity of young peacebuilders and strengthened their ability to participate meaningfully in peacebuilding frameworks.
