The Camp season opened

May 26, 2023

Summer is starting with camps full of energy, enthusiasm, adventure, companionship, and new experiences with TOKA!

Since 2015, TOKA has been organizing summer camps to educate the youth of Kosovo. This year, TOKA is organizing summer camps for all the youth of Kosovo and beyond. The camps are educational experiences that aim to help the development of youth through new experiences and engagement.

So far, TOKA has organized over 50 camps, involving more than 2,000 participants from Kosovo, the region, Europe, Israel, and the USA.

Are you ready to make this summer the best one yet? Let the countdown to camp begin! For the summer of 2023, 6 different camps are planned:

  • Debate Camp 8 – 10 July (Prizren, Kosovo);
  • HEARMI Camp 12 –  20 July (Prizren, Kosovo);
  • SMART Camp  25 – 31 (Prizren, Kosovo);
  • Camp “TOKA jonë” 4 – 9 August (Prizren, Kosovo);
  • Leadership Camp 13 – 15 August (Prizren, Kosovo);
  • Solidarity Camp 21 – 26  August (Prizren, Kosovo);

The first camp of this year, the Debate Camp, will be open to all participants of Debate Clubs. Its purpose is to further enhance the skills of youth in debates, public speaking, and critical thinking. Like in any other TOKA camp, there will also be other entertaining activities such as sports, nature meditation, and many more.

The next camp is the HEARMI Camp, which will be held for the first time in Kosovo, bringing together youth from Bosnia and Herzegovina, Romania, Kosovo, and North Macedonia. During the 9 days, the participants will have the opportunity to plan project ideas for the community that they will later implement in their own countries. The youth in this camp will have the chance to take part in various entertaining activities. Without a doubt, youth in this camp will learn about their cultures and visit beautiful places in Kosovo.

The Diaspora Camp “TOKA jonë” returns as one of the most popular camps! The camp is a unique and enriching experience for young people from the diaspora and Kosovo who want to learn more about culture, create new friendships, visit beautiful places, and spend 6 unforgettable days within a community that makes you feel safe. This camp is for all the youth from diaspora and Kosovo aged 14-16. For further information, click HERE.

The next camp is the Leadership Camp, which will also be open to all participants of Debate Clubs.

Finally, we conclude the summer with another heartfelt camp for everyone, the Solidarity Camp. This camp offers an opportunity for all young people who want to make a positive change in the community and engage in a volunteer project after the camp ends.

You will create new memories through collaboration in youth activities among young people from Kosovo and the diaspora. For further information, click HERE.
