In turn, the President of GJU, Prof. Ala’aldeen Alhalhouli, stated that this group of students had completed a semester of training through dialogue and educational sessions that discuss national issues such as the electoral law, parties, sustainable development, and other activities, which contributed to refining their personalities, increase their experience, and acquire the basic principles of the democratic process and advocacy skills.
Furthermore, students Ammar Al-Falahat and Raghad Youssef delivered speeches emphasizing the importance of the skills and knowledge gained from the “I Participate” program, where concepts about democracy and political life were corrected, in addition to enhancing their self-confidence and dialogue skills.
At the end of the ceremony, certificates were distributed to the graduates.
