The idea of the project was proposed by CRI volunteers and is based on the idea of “peer to peer”, which involves young people in development and communication under the guidance of experienced mentors.
“Kyrgyzstan is a multinational and polyconfessional country. We, like others, are concerned about the growth of radicalization in society, especially among young people from other regions. We thought it would be great to organize an inter-ethnic and inter-religious educational camp and bring together participants from all areas. In such a space, everyone would see for themselves that there is nothing terrible in representatives of other religions and worldviews!”


In 2020-2021
CRI organized
youth educational space for representatives of various religions and worldviews
from all 7 regions of Kyrgyzstan
Youth of any religion or belief from all over Kyrgyzstan were invited to participate in the program
