  3. The people who participated in workshop know how to behave with injured and killed people and responsibilities of military groups during conflict/war.
  4. Based on activities among the groups of participants, it was clear that they have understood about the issues which delivered during workshop.
  5. Participants confirmed that the issues which delivered during workshop were new and useful for them and they requested to have more of the same workshop in all villages.
  6. The workshop evaluation sheets indicate that the level of awareness of the participants have increased more than 50 percent, so it is a good achievement as well as a good initiative towards raising awareness of the community on an important matter.

Based on our observation and assessment from the workshop, we can claim that the event was implemented successfully, and all the participants enjoyed obtaining the important knowledge and relevant information through this workshop. The content of the workshop was useful for the participants, and they confirmed that such an opportunity is very important to be continued and expanded at the field level.
