What is this training about?
Essentially this training course deals with the question: How do I lead a group? We have workshops on group processes, dealing with conflicts and your individual leadership style. There are also units on topics such as environmental education, ecological sustainability and climate justice, as well as many practical tips and tricks for organization and everyday life with larger groups.
You will get to know other committed people who would also like to lead camps in nature conservation, as well as the people behind IBG . Experienced team members give you insights into 'their' camps and tell you how they overcame challenges or conflicts. The training is primarily intended for prospective camp leaders. Of course, the units also help you outside of the Workcamp cosmos, for example when running youth camps.
At an excursion into the national park, the experienced rangers will give you an insight into environmental protection work in practice.
