Within the “Building peace and confidence” project which is supported by the Dutch Embassy in Bosnia and Herzegovina, two out of four planned seminars for teachers from elementary school “Holandija” in Slatina and primary school “Fajtovci” from Fajtovaci were held. The seminars were organized in Slatina and the lecture s covered the communication topics. Topics were covered during the four-hour work through theory and practical workshops.
The goal of this project is to provide children, teachers and parents with corresponding instruments, communication skills and knowledge through which the process of reconciliation and mutual trust as a precondition for the development of the community and society will get stronger.
In addition to seminars, the workshops for children were also organised in schools in Fajtovci and Slatina. Through play and practical examples children develop communication skills and knowledge in the field of resolving and preventing conflicts and gain knowledge about children’s rights and social inclusion. The project started on November 1 and will last until 31 March 2015.
