Association InformaGiovani with the support of the European Commission “Youth in Action programmes” organize Leader Training “United for social inclusion”. Leader training will take place in Alcamo, western part of Sicily, Italy from 17-23 April 2013.
Workcamps, international youth and volunteer projects play central role in activities of many NGOs, and most of them need a camp leader, or coordinator, or teamer, or group leader. Names could be many, functions may vary – still, the leader is one of the keys to success of the workcamp and of other international projects.
With the proposed training we aim to prepare leaders in international atmosphere, discuss different aspects of workcamps and international volunteer activities and their preparation, international cooperation among organizations, leadership, preventing and solving conflicts and other issues related to leading an international youth project.
