April 18-21, Tunis: The three-year project ‘Women and Youth as Bridgebuilders – fostering resilience in Libya’ kicked off with an intensive 3-day workshop in Tunis, attended by three Libyan partners (Together we Build It Foundation, Tamazight Women Movement and Makers of Hope for Human Rights) along with the three Dutch partners (Cordaid, Human Security Collective, Women Peacemakers Program). The objectives of the workshop were as follows:

• getting to know the programme and each other
• improving the theory of change, the assumptions and the indicators
• getting down to the plan of action for the first year of the programme

Criteria for the selection of new Libyan partners to be part of the programme was also discussed, as were advocacy strategies and risk mitigation measures.
