Brief Activity Story

Since the workshops cannot be used as a media for mass communication to pass on important information to masses over large distance, in the bide to have the message of healing and reconciliation reach to more people, we opted  to use the radio  talk shows and on this day the project officer shared about healing and reconciliation in relation to the 2018 South Sudan revitalized peace agreement to the people of Yambio.
