We have the pleasure to inform you that yesterday, on the 3rd August 2015, the educational International Youth Training Camp “BE SAFE & HEALTHY” hosted by Latvian Red Cross Youth in Abragciems, Latvia, was officially opened. Now all the RC youth teams from Germany, Estonia, Belarus, Ukraine and Latvia are enjoying the event.
During the first 3 days the participants will have the opportunity to improve their knowledge while having a training course on health and safety issues and First Aid, as well as to share their international experience and to improve their skills of working in international teams in response to a variety of emergencies. On the third evening there will be an opportunity to participate at the challenging activity – the „NIGHT TEST”. At the „NIGHT TEST” the participants will have to overcome various obstacles in order to test their gained knowledge of health, safety issues and First Aid as well as to assure the ability to work in an international team. On the last day of the camp the participants will have a feedback session for going through what they have learned at the camp and what knowledge they can bring back home.
