Raghda Jamal, responsible for the Al Jazeera Ambassadors Initiative and the trainer of the story writing workshop for young people, said that she ''was happy with this cooperation between the Al Jazeera Ambassadors Initiative of the Al Jazeera Media Institute and the Katara Summer Camp. The importance of the eight workshops offered to the youth participating in the camp is that they were designed to take care of the youth category in particular.''
