Participants’ Opinions about Yalla Change 4 Training
‘Before becoming a leader, you have to succeed in everything that works to develop yourself’, I totally believe in this quotation and seek to apply it. I am very grateful to Yalla Change for opening great horizons for my self-development and be an active member of society. Additionally, it increased my awareness of advocacy, accountability and other issues of concern to us as young people. Big love to Yalla Change and its people, training and other components

“Since I am blind, I certainly like to integrate into society, and Yalla Change provided me with this opportunity. During the training, they introduced me to many concepts that I did not know, such as community accountability and the difference between initiative and advocacy as well as how to be a change leader. Thanks to the forum for providing this opportunity.

“To claim our rights, we must know what our rights are, and how to use the right methods? Yalla Change gave me a great awareness of my rights, which I was ignorant of some of them, and it established a large knowledge base for me about citizenship, advocacy campaigns, initiatives, and how to plan and implement them to reach the desired goal.
Rola Herz
“The training was one of the most exciting experiences that I participated in. Frankly, I liked the organization, arrangement and administration, and part of the training material was useful and I benefitted from it. I also liked the variety of trainers sharing the delivery of topics in an organized and planned manner. This was a good thing for me to reenergize my spirit and mind. I learned and benefited a lot, thank you Yalla Change.
Husam Alesawi
“For me, the training changed some concepts and terminology which, some of them, were axioms and that I was not ready to argue or discuss them. This thing made me more aware and open to each concept I hear and able to discuss its validity instead of believing in it directly. Also, this thing influenced my opinion and interaction with the latest issues. Yalla Change training was an intellectual turning point in my life.
Dalia Shehada
“The training changed lots of concepts for me and made me able to go deeper in other concepts that I had some confusion about. I was also ignorant of the role of youth in elections, decision-making positions or accountability for the officials. But now, I am more confident and seize any opportunity to ask any official about topics that I do not have sufficient knowledge of them and which I am interested to be part of initiative or advocacy related to them because I will be proud of such a thing. The training reenergized my efforts to participate in initiatives, discussions and accepting others’ opinions and respect differences. It was a great chance to be part of the Yalla Change family and SDF, and I am proud of every moment I spent and will spend here with you.
