Open Call for Participants in the Regional Summer Camp for Youth!

PLAY International, with the support of the French Ministry of Foreign Affairs, is organizing five-day summer camps for youth in Kosovo, Albania, North Macedonia, and Montenegro as part of the Shared Horizons project. The goal is to strengthen social cohesion and reconciliation through inter-cultural cooperation and the promotion of European, Olympic and Paralympic values.

Locations:

  • Kosovo (Prishtina): 30 June – 4 July
  • Albania (Tirana): 14 July – 18 July
  • North Macedonia (Skopje): 28 July – 1 August
  • Montenegro (Podgorica): 11 August – 15 August

The application deadline is flexible

Who can apply?

Young people aged 18–24
Citizens and residents of Albania, Kosovo, North Macedonia, Montenegro, Bosnia and Herzegovina or Serbia
With good knowledge of the English language
Holding valid travel documents
Ready to fully participate in the five-day camp

Priority will be given to:

  • Young people engaged in peacebuilding, social inclusion and inter-ethnic coexistence
  • Members of minority or marginalized communities
  • Those aiming to become leaders of change in the region

Participation in one of the summer camps is an opportunity to build lasting friendships and expand the regional network of young activists and professionals. Through interactive activities and leadership exercises, participants will develop personal and professional skills, gaining practical tools to positively impact their communities.

The program challenges young people to think critically, engage in deep discussions, and participate in practical activities that deepen their understanding of social inclusion and peacebuilding. By the end of the camp, they will be equipped with knowledge, skills and confidence to advocate for peace and social inclusion – inspiring others to join in creating a more united and sustainable Western Balkans.

📌All expenses are covered (travel, accommodation and meals).
📢 Do not miss the opportunity to be part of a transformative experience that fosters cooperation and change at the regional level!
