Camp Leaders
The Camp Leaders Association is a non-governmental organization that conducts training, capacity building, and fieldwork in the areas of youth camps, camp leadership, and volunteering.


What do we do?
We develop education and camp-based activities and run programs that take learning to the field.
Training Programs


We design and implement qualified training programs in the fields of youth work and youth policy for volunteer camp leaders and youth workers.




Youth Camps
We run camp and field-based programs where volunteer camp leaders gain experience through a broad educational and experiential learning approach.
We are building a volunteerism process that supports the personal and social development of our volunteers, based on taking responsibility and youth participation.

Our Current Work
You can review some of our current initiatives for volunteer camp leaders and youth workers here.


Artificial Intelligence Skills Training
The Artificial Intelligence Skills Training was conducted to develop the digital literacy and AI-based skills of volunteer camp leaders.
The four-day training program aimed to enable participants to use AI tools ethically and effectively, gain productive digital skills, and utilize these tools in their socially beneficial work.


European Youth Opportunities Camp
The European Opportunities Camp was organized to provide volunteer camp leaders with comprehensive information about the European Solidarity Corps (ESC), the Erasmus+ Youth Program, and other European youth opportunities.
The camp program, conducted over a total of one week in two different periods, aimed to strengthen participants' intercultural interaction awareness and increase their active participation in international mobility programs.


Strategy Development Camp
The Strategy Development Camp was organized to address the mission and vision of the Camp Leaders Association with a shared understanding, clarify its areas of activity, and strengthen its institutional orientation.
The camp process increased participants' active involvement in decision-making, planning, and collaborative production processes, contributing to the identification of common goals and priorities that will guide the association's future work.
Camp Leadership Ecosystem
We are an active part of this ecosystem through education, camps and volunteer-based activities that support the development of volunteer camp leaders.
