The Harlem based teens who presented this session had been in a Leadership Institute of the Network for Peace through Dialogue for several years. In their workshops they interviewed over 150 peers asking about their concerns for themselves, their communities and their world. Then they developed workshops on the top-ranking topics: sex, drugs and violence and led workshops at teen centers in their neighborhood. Another concern they had was the gap of communication between themselves and adults in their communities. They took action on this by preparing and presenting their workshop for the June conference. Participants at this workshop commented that they were enlightened to hear clearly what the young people thought and that in the discussion that followed the young people could give several examples to illustrate their statements. This is an example of training youth to analyze their issues, express their position, and give supporting examples thus giving them the tools for advocacy.
