The TaiwanICDF held its first International Cooperation Development Summer Camp in 2010. This event proved to be a great way of enhancing students’ knowledge of international cooperation and development and helping Taiwanese and international students to get to know each other better. Participants told us that they’d gained a practical understanding of the issues concerning cooperation and development around the world, and broadened their international point of view.

Following the success of the event over the past two years, we’ve decided to expand this year’s camp and open 100 places for those who are interested in joining the event.

This year’s camp will run from August 15-18 at National Pingtung University of Science and Technology. The deadline for registration is July 23 and the event is open to students from Taiwan International Cooperation Alliance (TICA) universities who are interested in issues relating to international cooperation and development. All of the courses will be given in English, and include a number of group discussion sessions where participants will discuss the following five issues: Economic Development and Environmental Protection, Public Health in Developing Countries, The Role of Bridging the Digital Divide in International Development Aid, Issues in Global Food Security and The Role of Overseas Volunteers in International Cooperation and Development.

If you are a student at a TICA university, to take part in this camp just download the application form, fill it in and return to Ms. Elisa Chang at the TaiwanICDF.

Tentative course outlines showing the full camp schedule are attached below. If you need further information you can also contact Ms. Elisa Chang at 02-2873-2323, ext. 610 (e-mail: yc.chang@icdf.org.tw).

We will announce the admission list of the camp no later than July 30.
