The camp written by Penda

The Girl's Camp is an initiative of the Meeting Place and Resource Centre for Black women in Zurich to hold an Exchange learning and Mentoring Camp for Black Girls and Young Black Women. The participants are between 9 and 23 years old.

The camp was on Learning and having fun...

The aim of this camp is to bring Black Female Youth together for intergenerational exchange and dialogue. The camp also created space for the girls to share their ideas, learn about sisterhood, bonding, things that are important to each of us, what makes us who we are and also learn from each other.As sisters we expend a wonderful time learning about connecting the dots, breaking cycles, diversity, eating healthy and a lot more.

The girl's Camp in Zurich was a great experience for both young girls and adult participants.

Everyday was about a new experience. ..
