UNICEF Moldova, the Orange Foundation, and the PRO BONO Information and Resource Center are now accepting applications for the 2025 edition of the “Youth in Action” Summer Camp.

This free program is open to young people aged 14 to 21 from Moldova and Ukraine and offers two separate sessions in July:

• Tour 1: July 1–4
• Tour 2: July 7–10

The camp will take place at the “Odiseu” Recreation Center in Vadul lui Vodă.

Over the course of four days, participants will engage in a dynamic program covering key topics relevant to youth today, including:

• Activism and participatory democracy
• Sustainability and environmental protection
• Entrepreneurship and innovative thinking
• Educational technology, using modern equipment such as 3D printers, Sphero Bolt and Ozobot robots, drones, and VR headsets
• Sound and emotion exploration through a DJ workshop

This initiative aims to empower young people to actively engage in their communities, providing both theoretical insights and hands-on experiences in teamwork and intercultural communication. Activities will be conducted in both Romanian and Russian, with priority given to applicants from vulnerable groups.

Accommodation, meals, and all activities are fully covered by the organizers. Transportation costs will also be reimbursed upon presenting a valid travel ticket and ID. Personal transportation expenses are not eligible for reimbursement.

Interested applicants should fill out the registration form by the June 23 deadline.

“Youth in Action” is part of a broader initiative supported by international and local partners, promoting civic engagement, youth participation, and the development of future-ready skills. With its focus on technology, innovation, and entrepreneurship, the camp addresses the growing need to prepare youth for tomorrow’s economic and social challenges.
