Together Youth for Global Development

International volunteers will support the campleaders in all activities during the camps by: preparing activities, leading different subgroups of participants;

encouraging participants to get involved in every single activity;

observing and giving feedback on the personal development of participants;

introducing their own cultures;

sharing ideas/opinions on different topics of the camps. The teenagers will stay with us and so taking care of daily life which is as important as other activities. We expect all of us to be fully active and responsible for the teenagers and planning for activities. One person involved in this camp would need to lead at least one activity for the teenagers. Before it starts, we will organize an online preparation to brainstorm what we are going to do, who is the leader for which session, and so on. Any idea is welcome such as art, sport, games, English lessons (basic), theatre, cooking, gardening, or recycling. The main aims of the camp are to promote international volunteerism, and cultural differences and encourage young people to join different meaningful activities in an international work camp environment to develop themselves as global active citizens.
