Student Leadership Camp
From July 18 to 29, a schoolchildren leadership camp was held in Artsakh on the initiative of Teach Armenia. Civic Hub, Transparency International Armenia and the Armenian Red Cross also contributed to the implementation of the camp.
The main agenda of the camps was educational: there were lectures on the topics of social science, environmental protection, human rights, media literacy, and critical thinking.
Lectures were conducted by experts invited both from Armenia and from Stepanakert, local communities.
There were also discussions, intellectual and sports games, cultural events.
Project management was also an important component of the camps. On the one hand, the pupils learned how to write and organize the projects, in parallel, they also divided into groups and wrote their own small projects that they can implement in their own communities.
On the last day of the camp, the participants presented 9 projects, of which 3 were recognized as winners. The authors of those three winning projects received a grant to implement their ideas.
