The topic of seminars was “Importance of communication in peace building”, and during these seminars, through short lectures and many practical exercises participants could acquire new knowledge, but also begin to develop new skills that are needed to work in their communities in order to build peace.

Participants in Zenica showed great interest for the topic, but also for the work of Youth for Peace, so they expressed their desire to participate in new activities of the organizations, but also to join Youth for Peace team in their work. Besides other things, three very important and powerful messages of young people were: “we consider that we should be the main actors in peace building processes, we are the present of this country, and currently as high school students we are already doing something, but we wish to contribute to peace building progress but also to progress of Bosnia and Herzegovina”.
