On 27th and 28th February 2017, the second workshop within the project “First World War and youth – peace and reconciliation” was implemented in Dojran.

***

The activity involved high school students from several cities in Macedonia, who strengthened their knowledge from this historical period in the country through a field visit and interactive workshops on the topic of First World War.
The students, accompanied by their teachers and researchers had the opportunity to visit the front line near Dojran, thus seeing the conditions in which the soldiers have fought and the local citizens have lived during that period.
This is the second workshop organized within the project, after the first one implemented in November 2016 in Bitola. The last activity that is already announced is an exhibition of art pieces on the topic created by the students involved in the project. The event is going to be held in Skopje on 17 March 2017.
The project is implemented by ALDA Skopje and it’s supported by the British Embassy in Skopje.
