Additionally, we hope that the workshop helped build some momentum and understanding around 21st century learning and opened up some options for further collaborations and partnerships around violence prevention work. We all learned a great deal from listening to each other\u2019s ideas, reactions and suggestions, and we look forward to using the preliminary results from this workshop in our work moving forward.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-6d26be1 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"6d26be1\"
