ورشة عمل مصرتوبيا  12 اسيوط

نفذ مشروع "بناء القدرات للسلام" ورشة عمل مصرتوبيا 12 لأطفال محافظة أسيوط، وذلك من خلال التعاون مع مكتب العدالة والسلام التابع للكنيسة الكاثوليكية ومؤسسة صوت الشباب للتدريب والتنمية.

امتدت انشطة الورشة على مدار 3 أيام فى الفترة من 17 الى 19 مارس 2022م. وقد شارك بها عدد 64 طفل من محافظة اسيوط شملوا مختلف الطبقات الاجتماعية والبيئات الجغرافية والخلفيات الدينية والجندرية بمحافظة اسيوط.

شهدت الورشة مشاركة طالبات المعهد الأزهرى ومدرسة الراهبات بالاضافة لطلاب وطالبات المدارس الحكومية بمدينة اسيوط والقرى المجاورة لها.

استطاع الاطفال تخطى الحواجز الثقافية والاندماج فى فرق عمل مختلفة مثلت بيئة أمنه للتعارف والاندماج بينهم كمختلفين وخلال مسيرة الورشة استطاع الاطفال اكتشاف قيمة الاختلاف بينهم والغنى الذى يمثله ويضيفه ذلك الاختلاف لحياتهم وامكانية التعايش المشترك فى ظل ذلك الاختلاف.

بنهاية الورشة نجح الاطفال فى تصميم نماذج للمؤسسات التعليمية التى يرغبون فى ان يعيشوا بها والتى عبرت عن قناعتهم بالاندماج بين مكونات المجتمع المختلفة و وعيهم باحتياجات الاخر ووجوده سواء كان هذا الاخر هو الاخر من ذوى الاعاقة او الاخر جندريا او الاخر دينيا...

تبع الورشة عملية تقييم على مراحل زمنية مختلفة مع المتطوعين والمؤسسات الشريكة بالاضافة للاطفال واولياء الامور.
