2007 camp

This year the European Cultural Capital of Sibiu welcomes you in another edition of "Leaders for Tomorrow" Red Cross summer camp. Guys and girls, hope you are ready for a hot play!

Title: Youth em'power!

Director: Romanian Red Cross, Sibiu branch

The story : 100 youth volunteers from Romania and Europe are expected to take their tents and sleeping bags, and gather close to Sibiu, in Rasinari, for a week-camp to gain additional leadership abilities to use back home. They will work together and have lot of fun, using intercultural learning as a tool to know each other and break prejudice.

The players: youth volunteers, 16-26 years old, active, dynamic, creative, English speaking, sportive, able to interact in an intercultural environment and to live one week in a tent under the free sky.

The scenes: we organized 4 special workshops, to choose from.

Creative peer-education. Educating our peers. About HIV, drugs or other health issues. Creative ways of doing it. ‘Cause you can do better than distributing flyers. Be creative!

Art club. Move. Talk. Debate. Feel. Dance. Stay still. Dramatic arts can help express great ideas. Show emotions and shape individuals and groups. Be artistic!

First aid kit. It's always useful to know first aid. And respect the nature. It might be that someday a wood will need a patch on it... Be safe!

Games for volunteers. And not only. We play, and change, and recreate, so that we have fun and get the motivation to do great things. Be involved!

The extra: a visit to Sibiu, a cultural declaration in the middle of the city, lot of sport and morning dance! Plus the incredible chance to learn how to cook, to start fire and manage yourself in a natural environment!

The language: English, Romanian

The fee:
Romanian volunteers - 50 Ron
International volunteers - 50 Eur

In case of more participants as expected, we will make a selection according to the motivation, gender balance and organizations' diversity.
