The Aga Khan Youth and Sports Board for Pakistan (AKYSB) is excited to welcome back participants and facilitators for an unforgettable summer with the Broadening Horizon Youth Camp (BHYC).

BHYC inspires resilience in youth and nurtures their social, physical, cognitive and emotional growth. It is hoped that by the end of this camp, youth are better able to address contemporary challenges with ethical approaches; take pride in their identity and develop an increased sense of belonging towards Jamat and its institutions; enhance their leadership skills; and are inspired to become ambassadors of the Jamat. Taking a multidisciplinary approach, the camp will engage youth through educational sessions, group-based activities, AKDN site visits, and adventure sports. 

Participants:

Jamati girls and boys aged 15 to 17 years across Pakistan are invited to apply for BHYC. We want to get to know you and learn about your interests, passions, and motivation for applying to BHYC. We encourage you to be open and honest in your application. Your application will be peer-reviewed reviewed and shortlisted candidates will be invited to participate in BHYC.

Facilitators:

Facilitators will directly mentor, guide, and support participants to ensure their growth and development through transformational experiences. Facilitators are flexible, adapt quickly to dynamic situations, and are open to learning and being part of a team. Facilitators serve a key role in building relationships and fostering a sense of community at BHYC. Facilitators will be required to participate in virtual and in-person training prior to BHYC. Candidates aged 20 to 25 years will be prioritized as facilitators for BHYC.

Applications:

The residential camp will be held in various regions of Gilgit Baltistan from 15th to 22nd July 2022. The last date for applying for participants and facilitators is extended till 20th May 2022.
