Summary

Disunity in my community is premised on misunderstandings about each other, be it in terms of traditions, culture, age generations, or faith. Combining a faith-based and human rights approach I want to train and develop the next generation of community leaders to critically engage with these prejudices, and tackle them through re-education. I want to neutralise the negative stereotypes of local 'groups' by using various media approaches, so that people can SEE we're all human, therefore all one community. The age-gap issues will be tackled by inter-generational activities to show that 'everyone was young' once- often facing very similar issues.
