  • ROTA in session 1, led a high-level intergenerational discussion titled, ‘Strengthening Intergenerational Dialogue for Collaboration to Shape the Youth, Peace & Security Agenda’. The discussion was organised to ensure youth inclusion in shaping the projected outcomes for youth engagement in peace and security agendas. Recommendations from the discussion were integrated to the final roadmap that emerged out of the Youth and Peace Conference organised in January 2022.
  • ROTA in session 2, screened the South Sudan and Uganda-based youth film ‘Peacebuilding Through Their Eyes’ and held a panel discussion of a group of experts to draw conclusion and directives to inform the peacebuilding agenda. The film, shot by youth cameras, gave the youth in local communities the opportunity to record their perspectives on peacebuilding realities, approaches and challenges. The film captures the views of youth on how peacebuilding processes can be shaped and achieved through youth as peacebuilding advocates and thought leaders.
