Social activists innovating non-formal educational activities and participation.

“Our duty as social activists is to focus on using new ways of participation and innovating non-formal education activities.”

Iraqi Youth for Dialogue and Coexistence Cooperation Circle (CC):
• creates a common platform for Iraqi Youths to interact, communicate, and develop dialogue skills in areas related to interfaith
• spreads awareness among all Iraqi youth on pluralism, democratic rule, interfaith dialogue, transparency, human rights’ education, and gender equality through workshops, multimedia tools, and advocacy campaigns
• gathers Iraqi, Arab, and Middle Eastern youth from all sects, religions, ethnicities, and non-partisan groups to discuss and solve cultural and religious clashes
• trains young activists on leadership, interculturalism, conflict resolution, and peace building in an attempt to help them become initiators, each in his or her own community
