Description
This program supports initiatives with the primary goal of developing peacebuilding, interethnic and intercommunity exchange, collaboration, and community/relationship building among members of different ethnic group. We are seeking projects and initiatives that enable young people to build ties and understanding through activities related to a particular theme while cohabitating for at least 4 consecutive nights in a camp setting. Essential to the projects is that they use the camp to clearly develop increased understanding and community among the ethnically and geographically diverse peoples of Bosnia and Herzegovina. Proposals should engage youth who have had no prior access to similar initiatives, belonging to at least one of two specific age ranges: a. ages 10-17 or b. ages 18-25. The Embassy welcomes all innovative proposals aimed at accomplishing these goals.

• Science, coding, and IT skills: Camps that bring together members of neighboring or nearby communities that have little contact with each other to teach participants skills meant to spur their interest in and prepare them for increased involvement in science, coding and IT-related activities or employment. • Social Media Savvy: Camp projects that bring young people together across ethnic lines to develop critical thinking skills related to social media such as how to know what is true online, how to determine if a profile/account is real, how to deal with online trolls and bullies, and how to identify bias in order to have a positive, community building experience on social media. • Inclusion of marginalized Groups: Camp projects that develop understanding and inclusion among majority and marginalized minority groups including (but not limited to) displaced persons, persons with disabilities, socio-economically disadvantaged persons, LGBT persons, Roma, and others. • Dealing with Bullying/Peer Violence: Camp projects that teach conflict avoidance and non-violent skills to deal with peer violence and bullying as they build ties and understanding among members of different ethnic groups. These projects should address self-confidence, insecurity and issues that lead to bullying and peer violence.
