The project encourages youths and adolescents to participate in activities that enhance cohesion, team building, and behavioral change,\u201d the statement read in part. \u201cThis includes involvement in sports and music, with support to professionalize their musical interests. Through the support from Germany, this project will also enhance other skills, promote the production of handicrafts such as bead making and embroidered products, and connect them with markets to sell their products.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe grant specifically equips these activities with sports, recreation, musical, and vocational equipment,\u201d it added.<\/p>\n<p>GREDO\u2019S Executive Director, Mr Jaffar Mbugua Njenga, said they are appreciative of the funding from the German Embassy.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cGREDO is immensely grateful for the generous contributions of the German Embassy. Combined with support from our partner UNICEF, this project can serve as a catalyst for social change, promote safe behavior and prevent violence,\u201d he said. \u201cThis is ultimately making a significant difference in the lives of young people in South Sudan.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Dr. Bjo\u0308rn Niere, Charge\u0301 d&#8217;affaires at the German Embassy, said they acknowledge the substantial challenges faced by the youth in South Sudan.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cPoverty restricts the opportunities for positive engagement,\u201d he stated. \u201cSupporting grassroots initiatives like GREDO helps to foster resilience and empowerment of marginalized groups. This will contribute to positive societal changes in South Sudan.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>According to the statement, Germany&#8217;s support extends beyond grassroots initiatives, encompassing large-scale projects aimed at promoting agricultural development, water and sanitation, promoting peace, stability, and good governance to improve the lives of South Sudanese people. This multifaceted approach highlights Germany&#8217;s enduring commitment to supporting South Sudan on its journey towards peace and prosperity.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/south-sudan\">South-Sudan<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; South-Sudan.
