A new version has appeared among all kinds of camps.
Summer programs have been held on the campus of the international boarding school UWC Dilijan for the third year targeted at children 9-16 years old. The organizer is the Scholae Mundi charity foundation, created by social investors and entrepreneurs Ruben Vardanyan and Veronika Zonabend. The highlight of the programs is the edutainment learning format. Adult professions are taught here through the game.
For 2 weeks, camp participants aged 9 to 16 years old can choose one of five thematic areas and prepare projects together with experts. Despite the fact that there are only five directions, they tried to diversify the choice to the maximum. The result was a very varied program, which included Performing art, Visual Art, Leadership, Nature and Technology, Healthy lifestyle and Sport. Shifts are organized in Russian and English.
Also in 2018, for the first time, there were family programs for children from 6 to 9 years old with their parents. In an informal setting, participants attend interactive workshops on history, ethnography, architecture and fascinating mathematics, and at the end of the program, unusual theatrical performances will stand.
