Program Objective
The main objective of our program is to build the capacity of young women in Afghanistan. By enhancing the problem-solving and writing skills of our participants, we prepare them for their future career or further education. In addition, by brining young women with different backgrounds from across Afghanistan together, we build and strengthen their network so they can work collectively toward a common goal.
Activities:
In our mentorship program, we organize sessions on critical thinking, conflict analysis and reflective writing for our participants. In addition, we will organize sessions on citation and references to further equip the young women with necessary skills in writing and research. During this program, the participants will be divided into groups to write articles in light of the current situation in Afghanistan. At the end of the program, we will publish their articles in a Booklet to portray the severe challenges that youth face in Afghanistan and, simultaneously, amplify their call and demand from the International community.
