1. Mr Muchenje is a successful farmer in his own right, described by state media as a beneficiary of the Land Reform and Command Agriculture from Midlands. He describes himself as being inspired by @edmnangagwa newzimbabwe.com/successful-you…
2. The man claims he started farming after touring ED's farm in 2016 (the height of Zanu factional fights and he was trusted to tour Sherwood farm👌) . Inspirational isn't it? www-herald-co-zw.cdn.ampproject.org/v/s/www.herald… 
In the absence of meaningful opportunities to participate socially, politically and economically, marginalized young people are strikingly creative in forging alternative places of belonging and meaning through which to express themselves. #Youth4Peace

The main strength is that we are youth-led. Young members decide how,in what way, where and when to organize certain projects. They brainstorm ideas&they are in charge of everything. These young members meet with sponsors&they negotiate wth them. #Youth4Peace

We, the youths, are dreamers, entrepreneurs. We are victims, of course, too, and we cannot change that. But we are also everything else. #Youth4Peace

Youth, unlike many other “unchanging” forms of identity (such as ethnicity or race), is a transitional phase of life. #Youth4Peace

The idea of youth as a transitionary period is sometimes taken to imply that the formal markers of chronological age might be the most consistent signposts for defining young people. #Youth4Peace

Although young people share many of the same peace and security challenges as society at large, there are unique dimensions to being young that expose young people to distinct challenges and opportunities. #Youth4Peace

Contrary to most popular representations, the majority of youth are not violent. Rather, they can - and do - play active roles as agents of positive and constructive change. #Youth4Peace

Team Khadim ul Khalaq Foundation (KKF) with the support of the United States Institute of Peace (@USIP) conducted its seventh training under the project “Promoting Peace Through Critical thinking”.
The 5-days training was held at Govt High School Kohi Sher Haider Bara, where middle & high-grade students were engaged in lectures, group activities & video documentaries on various themes such as Empathy, Peace/Conflict Resolution, Human Rights, Leadership & Interfaith Harmony.
The curriculum of our schools offers very little content on peace education. This project is an attempt to build the capacity of youth while empowering them with skills required to promote peace and prevent them from joining militant/radical organizations in this region.
