The Dar al-Salam Organization for Combating the Carrying of Weapons and Arms has completed a training course for Muslim clerics on combating extremism and small arms control. The event was sponsored by Yemen’s Ministry of Endowment and Guidance, and the Netherlands Ministry of Development and is part of a strategy which seeks to establish up to 80 courses for both Islamic clerics and private educational institutions on preventing armed violence and terrorism.

85 male and female students from more than 30 schools in the Sana’a governorate took part in a theatrical performance on peace and its significance in Islam, Christianity and Judaism, which was also produced and directed Dar Al-Salam.
