When I heard of the opportunity for training in CRE I said to myself \u00ab\u00a0What will I gain from it?\u00a0\u00bb since my friends were discouraging me, telling me that I am too old, but then I said to myself I must attend this training till the last day. As I talk, this program has given me more energy to solve problems instead of avoiding them like I used to. I am a changed agent and through the knowledge gained in conflict resolution education my life has changed positively. Thanks so much to WPDI for supporting the young people of Karamoja.\u201d<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"450\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-5139\" src=\"https:\/\/www.wpdi.org\/app\/uploads\/Conflict-Resolution-Karamoja-Uganda-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.wpdi.org\/app\/uploads\/Conflict-Resolution-Karamoja-Uganda-1.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/www.wpdi.org\/app\/uploads\/Conflict-Resolution-Karamoja-Uganda-1-250x113.jpg 250w, https:\/\/www.wpdi.org\/app\/uploads\/Conflict-Resolution-Karamoja-Uganda-1-750x338.jpg 750w, https:\/\/www.wpdi.org\/app\/uploads\/Conflict-Resolution-Karamoja-Uganda-1-768x346.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.wpdi.org\/app\/uploads\/Conflict-Resolution-Karamoja-Uganda-1-120x54.jpg 120w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Another participant, Napeyok Gloria, 19, from Potongor Parish, Nakapelimoru Sub County, Kotido district, described how the training program can help her resolve personal conflicts: <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cI am proud of being part of the CRE training. Personally it has helped me so much, before when I was involved in conflict with my brother I could not get a proper way to handle the problem, but now after the CRE training the knowledge gained has enabled me to constructively solve the conflict with my brother. As I talk we are very happy as a family.\u201d<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The enthusiasm expressed here is a source of hope for us as the principal objective of WPDI\u2019s global Youth Peacemaker Network is to create a domino effect of lasting peace.
