The objective of the seminars is to increase the capacities of children in the development of their awareness camps on the topics of children's rights and gender-based violence and domestic violence. After the workshops QGSC in collaboration with an expert will compile a report of recommendations that will further collect will guide us on the most urgent issues that children are interested in. It should be noted in the presentation of the participating workshops that different opinions are encouraged and the role of the facilitator is to lead the discussion and ensure that the result reflects reality in the best way.
