Think Africa Youth Summer Camp

The Think Africa annual Youth Summer Camp brings the youth together through DANCE, ART and SPORTS. Three summer days filled with fun, an explosion of cultural exchange and life changing experiences for young people. Activities include creative art workshops facilitated by inspirational young stars!

This DARE NOT TO MISS camp intends to create awareness and kick-start an interactive discourse on culture and identity in response to the demand and suggestions from African and Finnish youth.

Price: The Camp is 100% free for the first 20 people to register including meals and transport. Registration for 2022 Think Africa Youth Summer Camp #TAYSC2022 will be announced at a later date.

Aims:

  1. Strengthen and expand African youth networks for cultural education and socialization.
  2. Create a safe space for discourse on perceptions of challenges, experiences and coping strategies related to cultural identity crises.
  3. Engage, educate and introduce African youth to the cultural heritage of their parents by exploring creative arts, sports and social activities, i.e. photography, poetry, crafts, dance, illustration and personal narratives.
