Our programs for under-16s are accompanied by volunteer adults. Each delegation of 4-6 children / teenagers is looked after by such a “leader”. They must be at least 21 years old, in some cases an age of 19 years is sufficient. There is no age limit to the top. There are no costs for you, but we do not pay any fees, but we are happy to issue a certificate.
Leaders are substitute moms or dads at the camp, have the legal responsibility for their delegation throughout the programme and, together with the staff, are responsible for the programme design. Comprehensive training in CISV is a prerequisite and helps to meet the requirements.
Leaders often develop lifelong friendships with people from all over the world.
