Demographic and Developmental Factors of Participation in Peacebuilding Programs among Yemeni Youth

HRMARS - Peacebuilding programs targeting youth are expanding. It is essential to involve young people in these programs to ensure the future well-being and stability of their countries. Data were collected through a survey that aimed to identify the relationship between demographic and developmental factors and participation in peacebuilding programs. The research was carried out with 182 Yemeni students from universities in Sana'a city, selected through random sampling. The findings demonstrated significant connections between participation in peacebuilding and both demographic and developmental factors. Specifically, the results showed that self-efficacy and self-esteem were predictors of youth peacebuilding participation in Yemeni universities. These findings offer new insights into the involvement of Yemeni university students in peacebuilding programs, particularly in the context of conflict.
