Organizzatore
Tallinn youth centre IZUM runs children s camp in Vihasoo for over 30 years. The aim of Vihasoo camp is to give children possibility of active and meaningful summer vacations. The base of Vihasoo lies 70km from Tallinn. The camp is located on the territory of Lahemaa National Park. The wonderful nature, proximity to the sea (about 100m), good facilities i all this makes Vihasoo camp ideal place for leisure. Such location brings children closer to nature and gives them an excellent opportunity to get acquainted with Estonian national heritage richly presented in the area. Most of children are Russian-speaking from minority communities of Estonia. The area of the camp is 1,8 ha. It can host about 80 children on one shift. The age is 13-16. More information on www.vihasoo.eeEach summer period of the camp has its own theme. This camp shift called Ethnos is a journey into the world of cultures, traditions, and histories of the peoples of the world. Here we learn how people live in different countries, their holidays, cuisine, and legends, and we discover the ethnic roots of each familytheir own traditions, roots, and heirlooms. The children will enjoy creative workshops, dances and music from around the world, culinary discoveries, crafts, fairy tales, and legends. We will combine the modern and the traditional, creating a shared space of respect and inspiration. Ethnos is about respect for cultures, friendship without borders, and the realization that every nation is a unique note in the melody of the world. The aim of the camp is to create a space for intercultural communication and learning, where children can learn about the traditions of different peoples, appreciate the value of cultural diversity, and respect their roots and the heritage of others. The program is aimed at developing curiosity, tolerance, empathy, and a conscious attitude toward the world as a single, shared community, where each nation is an important part of the larger picture of humanity. International volunteers are warmly invited to help realisation of this aim.
