Sonu\u00e7lar<\/h3>\n

The Young people who learn the problems that the violence causes, who see the reasons causing people to resort to violence, who discuss the measures to prevent violence and become aware of this issue, will combine these experiences with good practices and will be in a position to prevent violence through sports. As a result of this awareness and increased knowledge, they will wish to take part in work for their peers and feel the need to intervene in social events.
\nParticipants will raise awareness about violence and its effects and will see the possible disadvantages that could appear in the future.
\nYoung people will realize the difference between those who do sports and those who don\u2019t do sports and realize that they will lead a more successful and more peaceful life by doing sports in the following years.
\nParticipants who witnessed people's thoughts about violence will think about new ways of solutions. Thanks to the preparations made beforehand, they will learn the methods of reaching results more quickly. Participants will recognize their shortcomings and contribute to their own personal development. Participants who will be more interested in the violence events happening around will begin to ask themselves how beneficial they can be to people and their nations. Through our project, our young people, who will raise awareness about the tendency to violence, will transfer this to their own environment, thus contributing to the reduction of the tendency towards violence. The young people who understand the present situation of the tendency to violence will enable people to understand to what extent the ignorance of this can negatively affect our future. Our efforts to prevent violence in the national sense will enable our young people to benefit from the project by sharing their work and products on social media and the internet.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
