From September to December 31, 2021, more than 126 beneficiaries were targeted in different vocational courses that were conducted in the YBDO center in Sinjar including 2 knitting courses, 1 Make-up course, and 1 art and drawing course. These courses mainly aimed to teach women and men some vocational skills to provide them with some basics of knitting, art, and make-up to help those women to acquire knowledge and skills to start their own small businesses and gain some income from those businesses. Besides, financial support, these vocational courses were a space for so many girls and women to communicate and come out of the homesickness and the bad mood they experience at home for not having anything to do, so these courses were a safe space for them to get along with each other, and they also contributed in creating inclusion among women and girls from different groups like Yezidi and Arab to participate together in the training courses and break the barriers that they built in the face of each other due to the last genocide against Yezidis by ISIS.
