They should act on what they have learned and respect others despite the differences. Young people should work to deny violence in society, learn to live together, and empathize with the needy and work with others to better understand them.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-10852\" src=\"https:\/\/aelso.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/2nd-round-of-youth-symposium-for-peace-tolerance-balkh-province-05.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"810\" height=\"1080\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The symposium also included Q&amp;A session and group work where all the participants have been divided into different working groups to express their views on the questions specified for the group work.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-10853\" src=\"https:\/\/aelso.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/2nd-round-of-youth-symposium-for-peace-tolerance-balkh-province-06.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1080\" height=\"810\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The program ended with distributing certificates of participation for the participating, free time for networking and group photo.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-10854\" src=\"https:\/\/aelso.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/2nd-round-of-youth-symposium-for-peace-tolerance-balkh-province-07.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1080\" height=\"810\" \/><\/p>\n<p>aelso communication and public relations department<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The second round of the Youth Symposium for Peace &amp; Tolerance initiated by the Afghanistan Economic and Legal Studies Organization (AELSO) in direct collaboration with the White Assembly \u2013 Balkh province, on the role of youths in promoting and teaching the values of peace, tolerance and prosperity, has been successfully organized in Balkh province.
