Artsakh children take part in `The Day After Tomorrow` youth project

ArmInfo. Artsakh children took 

part in a 3-week summer shift of the youth project "The Day After 

Tomorrow", which took place from July 7 to 26 at the international 

school "Interdom" named after E.D. Stasova.

According to the message received by ArmInfo, 55 schoolchildren from 

Artsakh refugee families took part in the event. The program was very 

intense and included master classes, creative meetings, excursions, 

studying the Russian language and communicating with peers from 

Russia.

A lot of time in the camp was devoted to team activities so that the 

participants of the shift learned to help each other and stick 

together. Thanks to water and sports relay races, photo quests, where 

the squads were divided into teams, the children developed their 

communication skills, worked in a team, learned to understand each 

other, made joint decisions and showed maximum creativity.

In addition, the camp participants at Interdom took part in a quiz 

from the Russian Society "Knowledge" of the All-Russian project 

"League of Counselors" and got acquainted with the All-Russian 

educational program "Orlyata Rossii". The children also took a trip 

along the Golden Ring of Russia, the first stop was Yaroslavl. Then 

the travelers went to Kostroma, visited an elk farm, where they 

watched the animals, stroked them and fed them carrots, and also took 

part in a master class on making chocolate. 

Today, July 26, in Moscow, the children will also meet with the 

Commissioner for Children's Rights under the President of Russia. In 

Moscow, they will also have a 4-day excursion program: to VDNKh, a 

sightseeing tour of Moscow, the zoo, the Darwin Museum, Zaryadye Park 

and leading Russian universities for future career guidance. The
