PESHAWAR: The Centre for Research and Security Studies (CRSS) organised a workshop in the city on Sunday to raise awareness among young people about democracy, accountability and diversity. “There are very few opportunities for the youth to channel their talent and contribute to the society,” CRSS Executive Director Imtiaz Gul told participants. The event was organised under the umbrella of Harnessing Future Leaders –a youth leadership development project which aims to foster leadership qualities among young people. CRSS Programme Manager Shams Mohmand along with qualified trainers and over 60 students from various educational institutes of Peshawar, Nowshera and Charsadda were present on the occasion. During the workshop, participants were taught about importance of human rights and the rule of law.
