The workshop aimed to introduce Ethics Education and how it is applied in the Peace Clubs in Tanzania. Ms Clara Mduma, LTLT trainer gave an overview of the Ethics Education initiative and the LTLT programme. Thirty five participants attended the workshop coming from diverse social work backgrounds including education, children welfare, youths, and refugees support etc.

After the overview presentation, participants were invited to take part in LTLT activities – “Diminishing Island & where I stand for (Agree / Disagree)”.
