In order to strengthen social cohesion in this programme, training of trainers was carried out with Syrian and Turkish participants coming together from different cultures. After this training of trainers, the participants were asked to implement projects to strengthen social cohesion. During this process, the projects to be implemented by the participants were monitored by the conflictus team. In this monitoring process, the suitability of local projects for social cohesion in terms of important indicators such as gender,  mutual representation, conflict sensitivity was analysed. Preliminary meetings were held with the participants for this purpose. 

After the project implementation process, a measurement and evaluation study was conducted to understand the impact of the projects on the local context. In this process, Conflictus team conducted qualitative and quantitative research with participants in the provinces where the project was implemented, such as questionnaires and focus groups. At the end of these researches, detailed reports were prepared and shared with the organisation.

This project mainly aims to develop participants' skills and perspectives to seek sustainable solutions to social conflicts. To this end, the programme served different target groups such as Muhtars, migrants, volunteers and host community leaders in Adana, Hatay, Şanlıurfa, Gaziantep, Kilis, Mardin and Adıyaman. After the completion of the training sessions, an online follow-up meeting was conducted with each group to draft action plans. At the end of this process, 15 action plans were developed. These action plans were developed with the support of Conflictus team according to social cohesion criteria. In addition, the entire training process was evaluated through pre-post tests and online interviews..

This programme was implemented to empower trainers working with Syrian and Turkish children and youth in the districts of Suleymaniye, Viranşehir (Sanliurfa) and Kiziltepe (Mardin), which are densely populated by Syrians. The main objective is to strengthen the social cohesion between Syrian refugees and host communities by improving their personal life skills. For this purpose, two separate Life Skills Trainers' Manuals consisting of 13 and 6 training modules were prepared according to the different levels of 5-11, 12-17 and 18-25 age groups. At the end of these trainings, RET International's field staff were expected to apply the methods they learnt in the field. During this implementation process, Conflictus' expert trainers travelled to Viranşehir and Kızıltepe, which are the direct implementation areas, to observe the trainings on site and make evaluations. At the end of these evaluations, observations and suggestions were reported and shared with the organisation.
