Transforming Young People with A History of Violence into Peace Ambassadors.

Creative skills for peace marks the end of the pilot phase of its youth4peace project, and the beginning of yet a big storm full of positive energy for the nations youths.

The feeling of impacting knowledge to a group of youths whom society considers as dangerous, is immeasurable, especially when you can observe first hand the growth and progress in positive change brought about by the skills transferred to his generation.

One can only be happy, that the first step in a journey of a thousand miles, was completed with such tremendous success.

The enthusiasm with which these trainees worked with, and the devotion into consecrating their time in honing these acquired skills to bring about positive changes to their lives, and the hope of them impacting their friends and other youths considered deviant, one could only but see in a distance not so far, a beautiful future for our youths, and in due time, the whole world, as generations to come will bask in the beauty of developing talents for maintaining world peace.

With these accomplishment being just a foundation, we could, with no doubt, say, the genesis of the project marked a tremendous success.
