Be2aty Bootcamps in July
July was an incredible month for Be2aty as we launched two exciting bootcamps in the heart of Kafr Hamza! We hosted two separate batches, one for young adults and another for teens, and both were packed with environmental inspiration and self-discovery.
From14 to 18 July, 15 young adults aged 19 to 25 gathered for an unforgettable experience. Following that, from 28 July to 1 August, 16 enthusiastic teens aged 14 to 18 joined in as well, and both groups enjoyed a quiet break from Cairo’s fast pace at Beit ElKazmaron in Kafr Hamza, where they could relax, connect with nature, and explore new aspects of themselves and their environments.
Each day at the bootcamp was comprised of two main tracks of activities: exploring environmental topics and personal growth. In the environmental sessions, participants learned about important local environmental issues and brainstormed creative solutions. The personal growth sessions were all about understanding themselves better and building strong connections with others. This combination made for a well-rounded and enriching experience.
After the bootcamp, participants advanced to the Project Support phase, where over 11 days, they received expert guidance and training to refine their project ideas and address any challenges. This is complemented by one-on-one mentoring sessions with qualified mentors. To spark their creativity, we also organized a field trip to exciting spots like the Egyptian Clothing Bank and Upfuse’s workshop to gain fresh insights and inspiration.
Looking ahead, our 2024 schedule is already set with three more bootcamps in different locations. Stay tuned for more updates!
