“And thank you for very much for that very wonderful and very, very practical training we have had on women’s empowerment” I am just very eager to go back to my duty station and put into practice all of those hands-on skills and practical interactions we have had in the training, it will make a very big shift in the way I do things, they way I do these visits in the field, and the way I conduct the negotiations with the armed group leaders”
