Round 2: August 12th to 16th 2024Time: 8:45 to 17:00
Venue: Zurich with many excursions!

Early Bird Price: CHF 550/week until June 22nd (Round 1) or July 7th (Round 2)
Regular Price: CHF 650/ week
We encourage kids to attend the full week as the camps are designed to build through the week. However, we are flexible, so reach out if your child can only attend part of the week.
What would we do?
This five-day design thinking camp focuses on the question, “How can we use art to protect the Earth?” To do that, we practice sustainably creating art and explore “How can we use art to connect with people of diverse backgrounds?” This second question builds on our “Living in Harmony” spring camp.
Being summer, we will make full use of being outdoors!
How would we do it?
Through Projects
Learn the 5 steps of the Design Thinking process through hands-on projects in our sustainable maker space.
Through Play
Foster an interest in learning, empathy, diversity, critical thinking, and a creative mindset THROUGH GAMES and fun. We are on summer holidays after all!
Through Excursions
We learn about our local community to build the foundation for global thinking. Explore local sustainability mindset topics like CULTURAL DIVERSITY and BIODIVERSITY (Animal Shelter, FIFA museum, local playgrounds, FARMS, etc)*
Become an empathetic explorer, a systems thinker, a problem-solver, and a change-maker
Class Schedule
