As part of the Interfaith Dialogue on Violent Extremism - iDove project, supported by GIZ, a seminar entitled "Youth against Hate Speech and Violent Extremism“ was held in Sarajevo from July 3 to July 6, 2022, which gathered 16 young people from Bosnia and Herzegovina, Montenegro, Croatia and Serbia.
During the seminar, young people had the opportunity to learn about ways to fight against violent extremism and hate speech, the importance of dialogue, as well as the impact of mental health and the media on deep-rooted social problems. In addition to interactive workshops and discussions, young people visited the City Hall and War Childhood Museum, where they learned something more about the culture and history of Sarajevo, and also expanded their knowledge of the importance and relevance of the topics discussed. Young people showed their enthusiasm for participating in the prevention of these destructive phenomena, as well as the desire to actively participate in building a society based on peace and tolerance.
