1. Executive Summary: The objective of the intervention is to increase the relational space between and among the youth living around the villages of Udanga, Sennal, Veerachholai and Kanapathipuram. These villages fall under Sammanthurai DS division of Ampara District. The centrality of the project is to promote social cohesion. The main focus is to strengthen the informal relationship among youth with different ethnic background. The integrated approach is linked to the community identified development needs-skill development (enhance the skill of driving vehicles). The fulfilment of the need is the source and basis of creating meeting point among the youth and of promoting social harmony, through interpersonal relationship building. Paradoxically, this contributes to both: promoting relationship and crating tension and conflict. The project lays the foundation to transform the tension/conflict into positive social change. The youth has a vital role in promoting and engineering the social fabric of the society. In doing so, they have equally important practical role. Including them into the development process and building their capacity for placing them into the social system, they have to enhance skills. This project, address this dimension critically. This is a pilot project. The total budget is Rs. 1,467,900.00.This will fully utilized for the purpose recommended by the beneficiary community in order to promote their social interaction with other ethnic elements of the society. The content and the process of the intervention are purely based on the community-driven and locally identified solution. The driving force is youth. This is implemented through the local community based organizations. The meeting points are to be centred on skill development exercises: imparting the skill for driving vehicle. Consequently, they become as force of driving interpersonal relationship among youths with different ethnical background. Through identified youths, as starting point will transcend the differences and impact the community for social change.

2. Problem Analysis 2.1. Background and history of the situation:

The conflict situation in the east has been changing. The direct violence has been limited. The relationship between and among the communities, in the selected villages, is improving. Violence between Tamils and Muslims has been kept to a minimum since June 2008, and minimized from the recent (May 2009) military victory over LTTE but ‘tensions between the communities over land and political power remain high, and there seems little prospect of reconciliation so long as current government policies remain in place. Tamils are largely alienated from the government, thanks to the heavy hand of government security forces and TMVP1 activities. Many Muslims feel threatened by TMVP control of the provincial council and what they see as Tamil domination of the provincial administration. Both communities continue to suspect the government has plans for large-scale “Sinhalisation” of the east. Sinhalese villagers, students, contractors and government employees have, in turn, been victims of violent attacks’2 . This situation affects the youths from all ethnic communities severely. They found no proper vocational and social entrepreneurs guidance to engage in a meaningful life, helping them and district development per see. With the victory of the Presidential election, by the Mahinda administration, held in January 2010, inner context of the district has not been changed much. This is district perspective. At village level, the influences of conflicting element could be seen. Following the military victory over the fighting party, downsization and eradication of the LTTE, the government is moving to the development process. It claims post-conflict reconstruction. The grievances of the affected communities remain. It needs reconciliation. One of such measures is development, providing opportunities for youth to engage in a socially gainful life.

2.2. Main Actors involved in general situation : During the consultative interaction with the communities, they have done mapping of the actors involved in the situation. The main actors are the Muslims and Sinhalese of Majidpuram and Tamils of Kanapathipuram. There are secondary and tertiary actors contributing to make the social contact better. Of them, TMVP (from external), Tamil administrated and Muslim administrated CBOs, INGOS, government agencies and UNDP are prominent to note here as active actors in the said villages. This could be visualized as follow:

SOCIAL TENSIONS AND YOUTH UNEMPLOYMENT IN

AMPARA DISTRICT Youth unrest and unemployment stemming from the protected conflict. Youths from all three communities- Muslims, Tamils and Sinhalese are affected to some extent, as the government policies on reconciliation and development remain same; unchanged. This ‘unrest’ has no violent forms. It makes unemployment among the youth in the district.

(Illustrated by Mohamed Jaleel UNDP, July 2009) Considering the context and targeting broader audience of youth in the district, it has been opted to scale up idea in early February. The targeted youths are from the villages of Udanga, Sennal, Veerachholai and Kanapathipuram. According to the analysis of July 2009, youth from Majidpuram targeted. This has been replaced by the youth from Sennal and Veerachcholai. The nature of the perspective remains unchanged.

2.3. Perspectives of the actors/groups: Tamils feel they are largely alienated from the government. Many Muslims feel threatened by Tamil Makkal Viduthalai Pulikal (TMVP) control of the district as well as at the village level. And what they see as Tamil influence of the community administration. Both communities continue to suspect each other. This is not apparent. Hitherto, has negative impact on social relationship. Sinhalese villagers, students, contractors and government employees have, in turn, been victims of the situation and of growing stereotype. In both side, the youth play a key role.

2.4. Opportunities and Initiatives: Due to this situation, the youth from the identified villages remain unemployed. The youth who could not success in their education after O/L, find very difficult in securing gainful job opportunities, as they could not enroll in the A/L, which is the gate way for higher education. These youth are targeted by the interested parties, connected to the conflict/social tension, and become scapegoat. By supporting them in developing their skill to fit in the challenging job market, they could make a different in their village development and social cohesion.

In the villages, no viable initiatives have been put in place to work with those communities from the perspective of coexistence, conflict transformation and social change. There were couple of small activities aimed promoting the livelihood of the communities. There has not been taken critical reviews of the initiatives on how those activities promoted the coexistence and peacebuilding among the communities. Having discussed with the district consortium of humanitarian organization (CHA), it is palpable, there is no record available for this. UNDP has already reached this community through its livelihood project. The ground is conducive for the intervention. The situation is ripped for the purpose.

3. Rational and Justification: The centrality of the activity is building social relationship. This initiative invites the involvement of the youth of three communities, Muslims, Tamils and Sinhalese to work together. It happens in many ways: coming to impart the skill on driving, interacting in driving vehicle, informally interacting when they have their meals etc. for instance. This becomes centripetal/centrifugal of holding the relationship. Centripetal is bringing the people together. This also aims the youth to solidify with symbolic frame work of holding relationship through informal interaction, like cultural activities and sports, home visit in an organized manner with relaxation. This creates opportunities for the youth to interact with another’s family members and with their friends. It is simple but creates long lasting relationship. The intervention moves from one layer of interaction to another in human relationship.

This is based on the web approach3 to peacebuilding, ‘starting’, ‘strengthen’, and ‘solidify’. The starting is based on interaction of youth. The second ‘strengthen’ includes improving social relationship among youths through skill development interaction for 7month. This is an interactive skills development for relational transformation. The ‘solidify’ covers of symbolic frame work or informal interaction, such as house hold visit and stay, recreational and cultural activities for relationship building. This could be tabulated as follow: 3 John Paul, Lederach. (2005) the Moral Imagination: the Art and Soul of Building Peace, Oxford University Press.

The way intervention is structured. The mentioned is the centrality of holding the relationship among youth. It is envisioned of creating social change. When relationship collapses, the center of social change does not hold. The activities, identified, aim at in creating a positive context for youth interaction which leads to coexistence in the community. It is envisioned of crisscrossing connection of the youth and finding more attachment points as well as meeting points for interpersonal relationships among them as well in the wider community they come from and identically represent. These youth, in long run, will be connected to the prevailing peace net work in the district. As a result, they will recognize, identify and take measures to transform the relationships. This is structured around engaging the youth in their skill development. These activities, designed under this pilot project, is rebuilding what has fallen apart from and creating the process of rebuilding relational space that hold thing together and the multi community alike.

3.1. Type of Change The types of change4 identified in the intervention are relationship, status, behavior, circumstance, attitude and knowledge. This could be illustrated as follow: Type of change Specific Change relationship • From problem making to coexistence

• From suspicion to solidarity status • From unemployed to employee behavior • From violent to assertiveness

• From irrespective of other’s culture to accepting multi-culture

• From not listening to others to active listening circumstance • From not respectable youth to respectable youth by the

community he/she belong to Attitude • Greater tolerance of different perspectives

• From fear of Muslims, Tamils and Sinhalese to trust in them • From narrow focus on community based on the ethnicity

he/she belong to broad focus on community based on pluralism-multi-culture, ethnic.

Knowledge • Understands inter dependence of Muslims, Tamils and Sinhalese.

• Knows which I don’t like, others also don’t like; which makes me angry, makes others also angry and creates conflict/problem.

3.2. Theory of Change Statement

The theories of change adapted to achieve the objective of the desired result are- a. Youth employment will lead them engage in socially respectable life. They have less time

in allocating their time to involve in gang and social destructions. b. Job opportunity drives the youth to interact and provides opportunity to foster interpersonal

relationship. c. Close interactions create understanding, tolerance, and mutual compassion of others and

accept multi culture. This also reduces the conflict and problem. d. Heart to heart relationship long lasting; transcending from personal relationship to family

interaction.

3.3. Actors for the Intervention: The primary actor of the intervention is the selected youth from the villages of Udanga, Sennal, Kanapathipuram and Veeracholai. They are the direct beneficiaries. The secondary actors are the family whom the selected youth are coming from. There are tertiary actors. Of them, UNDP, skill development agency, Implementing Partner of the

4. Strategies for Change and Activities: 1 Interactive Skill Development for Relational Transformation This aims at bringing the youths from different ethnic communities, representing the selected area. The main target group is school leavers. They without utilizing their energy to the development process, wondering in the community and tend to create social problems. The identified skill development training and practice will be provided with the very close ecumenical interaction between and among the selected beneficiaries. The content of the training will be of life long benefit, for instance driving for boys. This will be focused with very locally beneficial and brings more interactive, working closely and collectively. Including girls, considering gender, also taken into account. Suitable skill will be identified for girl participants.

ACTIVITIES CONSIDERING GENDER The activities, for skill development, will be decided in a participatory manner, with the beneficiary, based on the need they prefer. A day is scheduled to select the most appropriate beneficiaries, through participatory interview. The same day could be utilized to identify the skill training for boys and girls separately, based on their recommendation. For boys, driving could be considered, if they like. For girls, the team will listen to them and agree upon considering their skills, culture and context in line with their future interest.
