Key Learning Points
Youths need a strong platform for growth and development including the recognition of their ability to think and speak for themselves.
Conflict Transformation is an arduous task, requiring hard work or continuous strenuous effort and eventually come up with a positive outcome.
Many victims of domestic violence, particularly girls, do nor report any incidents believing that their calls will be ignored because of their status and standing in society.
The human body is not merely a complex of tissues and organs, but the temple of the Holy God, therefore, relationships of sexual intimacy are reserved for marriage because only then is the inseparable connection secured that God wants.
