Youth Time Summer School will take place from July 15 to 21, 2011 at the “TourSib” recreation centre, in the Altai region of Russia. The school’s students will include 50 active members of the Youth Time International Movement from around the world.

According to their achievements in this summer training session, successful participants will be able to apply their skills in the development of the following projects:

In addition to the educational program, we will conduct a round table discussion on current affairs with a panel of international experts. Free time will be set aside so that participants can engage in sports activities and partake of cultural programs. On the final day of school, we will raft down the mountain river Katun.
As a result of the program, participants will have obtained the advanced skills needed by today’s youth and will be prepared for future activities in the Youth Time International Movement.
