The young people from this project used what they had learned about sectarianism to develop an interactive drama based workshop which they delivered to their peers as part of a local summer festival for young people and in local schools. The workshop was designed to raise awareness of the impact sectarianism can have on family relationships and the divisions it can cause between young people. The group took a very democratic approach to evaluating their workshops, asking the young people who had participated to vote, using real polling booths, on whether they believed sectarianism was an issue for young people in Dumfries and Galloway prior to watching the drama and then again after it.
