Dear readers,<\/p>\n
Let me continue the amazing story of the International Student Conference on Global Citizenship in Bandung, Indonesia.<\/p>\n
The 4th Day was dedicated to a intense but fascinating discovery of all what Bandung had to offer. Bandung has approximately 2,4 millions inhabitants and is surrounded by volcanic mountains, which give it a cooler climate that the capital city, Jakarta. The city is quite broad and extended, which is a true challenge for any foreigner (I\u00b4ve been myself looking for neighborhoods with little success…). Bandung is the sate of the province of West Java, and is home of the Sundanese people., the second largest ethnic group in Indonesia with a different dialect and peculiar traditions.<\/p>\n
The 5th day was entirely made of workshops discussions, that allowed us to reflect on all the different learning moments we had all been through.<\/p>\n
– The theme of the first workshop was on the role of medias in tackling terrorism<\/p>\n
– The second was about the necessity or not of severe punishments in order to prevent further terrorism attacks (Indonesia has still death penalty as a sentence for terrorist acts).<\/p>\n
– The third workshop gathered participants that wanted to discuss the experience of their home countries regarding terrorist attacks and counter-terrorism programs.<\/p>\n
All of the three workshop were really giving and educative. I could really testify how different the opinions of the different participants were, especially on the effectiveness of severe punishments to counter eventual terrorism attacks. Again, in one word, a perfect day in Bandung!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
