The workshop was about the Alternatives to Violence Project (AVP) which is a voluntary training program that helps participants deal with conflict and violence by focusing on inner peace in new and creative ways. The program draws from the shared experience of participants, using interactive exercises and activities, discussions, games, and role-plays to examine the ways we respond to situations where injustice, prejudice, frustration, and anger can lead to aggressive behavior and violence. 

Furthermore, by the end of the workshop, the participants were granted a certificate of participation.
