Active Citizens Camp unites proactive students from all over Ukraine to meet each other and learn how to unite people around significant projects. 

The camp has two modules. The first module will help you understand your motivation to be an activist, learn how to have an effective dialogue and plan sustainable social initiatives. Certified Active Citizens facilitators will be here to guide you. 

The second module is all about becoming a leader and starting social innovations. You will have the chance to apply new knowledge at practice and create a social project for your community. If your idea is among the top eight, you will get UAH 15,000 to carry it out in January-February.

Active Citizens Camp will take place 29 November - 15 December 2021. We will meet on weekdays: the sessions will start at 15.00 and end at 18.00. All sessions are mandatory except for networking meetings held on Wednesdays. 

Learn about the pitfalls and ask your question to the programme managers — join the live stream on Facebook on 19 November at 15.00.
