Background

For a more peaceful and communicative world, it is indispensable for young generations to receive an appropriate education, adopt basic human values, respect different cultures and understandings, and choose communication / diplomacy as a method of solving problems. Every day, we see that the tendency of young people to violence increases, that young people become radicalized and their tolerance of different understandings decreases in different media outlets, especially in social media. The problem we mentioned above is an issue that threatens both social peace and the future of young people. Studies on young people’s tendency towards violence, especially the 14-22 age group, are accepted in society, being a member of a community and so on. shows that they can join radical groups for reasons such as. It is also worth noting that armed conflicts in different parts of the world, computer games, music and cinema play a role in the formation of such a situation. This problem we are talking about is not specific to a particular society. For example, in a study conducted by bpb (Bundeszentrale für Politische Bildung) in Germany, it was stated that there was an increase in the number of 15-18 year olds who were oriented towards far-rightism. Likewise, it has been repeatedly reflected in the media that many young people of the same age group in Ukraine were taken to training camps by different right-wing groups on the grounds of war in the country. In the World Health Organization (WHO), youth violence is among the top problems of societies in the world and also states that it is emerging in different ways. In addition, WHO warns that urgent measures should be taken in this regard.

Objectives

According to the report of the Parliamentary Investigation Commission, 22% of the youth face physical violence, 53% verbal violence, 36.3% emotional violence and 15.8% sexual violence, 35.5% 48.7 percent use verbal, 27.6 percent emotional, 11.7 percent sexual violence (TBMM 2007). As Divan Research and Education Association, we think that civil diplomacy will be a method that will prevent the tendency of young people to violence and increase their sensitivity about conflicts in different conflict zones in the world. For this reason, we aim to bring together young people from different countries, cultures and languages ​​by carrying out civil diplomacy under a platform and to create a sensitivity in this regard. For this purpose, we prepared this project and agreed with our partners from different countries that the content of the project is as follows:
