More than 300 young activists, out of which 100 are from Georgia and 200 from Armenia, had the opportunity to strengthen their skills and competencies in social advocacy campaigns and public speaking, in the framework of the \u201cYoung Activist\u201d Project implemented in various regions of Armenia and Georgia.<\/p>\n<p>By coincidence, following the last of the 18 workshops held within the framework of the project in April 2018, the Velvet Revolution broke out in Armenia and most of the \u201cgraduates\u201d of the project made a considerable contribution to the successful outcome of the \u201cupheaval\u201d as many of them were active organizers of protests in their respective communities.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp; \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 &#8220;Young Activist&#8221; project The &#8220;Young Activist&#8221; project was implemented by the \u201cFree Citizen\u201d Civic Initiatives Support Center and the Public Movement Multinational Georgia, in collaboration with \u201cPeople in Need\u201d (Czech Republic) and SALTO Eastern Europe and Caucasus Resources Center (Poland).
