This form is to apply as a participant for the 2025 National Camp, a Canada-wide CISV camp that is being held
by CISV Montreal from July 19th - 26th.
National Camp is a multi-age week-long program for up to 40 youth aged 11 - 17 from across Canada. It is being organized by the CISV Canada Junior Branch in collaboration with CISV Montreal.
Like all CISV programs, the National Camp will be a dynamic, fun learning experience focused on peace education and leadership development. Participants are encouraged to take an active leadership role within the camp. After the first day run by the staff, participants will work together to plan and run camp activities.
Trained adult staff will facilitate the planning groups and ensure that everyone has a great experience. Every day will include active time outdoors on the beautiful camp property.
Activities at camp will be planned around CISV’s four content areas: human rights, sustainable development, conflict resolution, and diversity. Camp participants plan and run the activities throughout the week. They are challenged to explore new topics and themes through running activities, simulations, and anything in between. The National Camp experience is what you make of it; come with an open mind and be prepared to discuss new ideas.
CISV MEMBERSHIP
