Dear Counselor, are there training workshops where students from different schools are brought together to be taught more about the WSWM?

Yes,  there are National WSWM Student camps though not for all students.
In 2007, SchoolNet Uganda realized the need for providing extra training to outstanding students as Student Peer Educators so that they can effectively help in the implementation of the WSWM program in the schools. The first group of 40 Student Peer Educators was trained in May 2008, at a 4-day WSWM student camp which was held at Nabisunsa Girls’ school. The participants of the 2008 WSWM Student camp were selected based on their outstanding performance at the 2007 WSWM Exhibitions.
Due to the good work done by the trained Student Peer Educators, the Head teachers of the WSWM schools requested for at least one Student Peer Educator to be trained at each of the participating schools. Two WSWM Student camps each lasting 5-days will be conducted in the 2nd term holiday of 2009.  A total of one hundred (100) Student Peer Educators (SPE) will trained, one from each of the 100 schools which participated in the 2008 WSWM project cycle.
The students to participate in the WSWM Student camps will be selected by the schools and each school is responsible for setting its selection criteria.
At the WSWM National Students’ camp, in additional to being taught more about the content of WSWM, the students are equipped with communication and presentation skills, skills for writing and directing skits or plays like young professionals, counseling skills, photographic and video recording and editing skills and much more..
