YES 2005 - "Conflict Resolution and Mediation"

The YES 2005 was held in Werbellinsee, Germany from June 30 to July 4. Almost 400 participants from 22 different countries together with 75 volunteers took part in creating a great atmosphere and YES spirit. The theme for the YES 2005 was "Conflict resolution and mediation". Through workshops and a simulation game called "Peace in Dubrownoluka" the participants had the chance to work with the theme and to achieve concrete tools they can use after having returned to their home countries. Prepared and managed by a joint team of volunteers from YFU Denmark and YFU Germany and assisted by many more volunteer leaders from all over Europe, the seminar was a memorable and enriching event. The YES, and especially the YES parliament session, was organised as contribution to the 2005 European Year of Citizenship through Education of the Council of Europe .
