Interesting Webinar from DME for Peace

Using Technology to Engage Adolescents in Peacebuilding in the Middle East

​Join DME for Peace on Thursday, August 10th at 10:00am EDT as we welcome members of the Gender and Adolescence: Global Evidence Consortium to the M&E Thursday Talks to lead a discussion on “Using Technology to Engage Adolescents in Peacebuilding.” Adolescents in conflict-affected contexts are increasingly recognised as key actors in peacebuilding and conflict resolution processes. How can we help young people to build a sustainable and gender responsive peace by involving them in research and programs that are tailored to their capabilities and preferred change mechanisms? In this webinar, program implementers and researchers working with, and for, male and female adolescents and youth will share their experiences of using new technologies to help gather and share evidence on adolescent well-being and facilitate peacebuilding processes in conflict affected communities. During the webinar, members of the GAGE Consortium will share insights on best practices and the research ethics of using new technology-based research, programming and communication tools with and for adolescents which have potential for empowerment and tackling restrictive gender norms.
