The GAMAE Garifuna Arts for Youth and Young Adults Empowerment Training Program (GGATTAETP) will train youth and young adults to know that failing is not a bad thing to happen, it’s actually important to find out what went wrong so they can improve and make it better the next time they try. Often the way to success is through failure. The Program will encourage youth to speak about to their triumphs often, to share their victories across all media platforms to reinforce the positive change that has occurred.
