Summer camp brings youth together

"Summer camp brings youth together
By Jean Christou

A CYPRIOT youth camp which finished its activities yesterday brought together 113 young people, aged 12-16 from all communities across the island.

The Doves Olympic Movement, which is part of UNDP’s initiative, Action for Cooperation and Trust (ACT) in Cyprus, organised the nine-day camp in the village of Agros.

It included sporting and educational activities, which enhanced multicultural interaction, global citizenship, communication and problem solving skills, the UNDP said in a statement.

Campers were able to play soccer, basketball, volleyball and learn martial arts, as well as engage in discussions on human rights, environmental awareness, technology, health and well-being and conflict management."
