WHAT IS THE PROGRAME ALL ABOUT
The purpose of visit to such Festival is to create the multicultural environment and to contribute to the formation of the principles of tolerance, equality of rights and religious liberty within the international community of children. The Festival is aimed at instilling in children a spirit of international cooperation and friendship so as to pool their efforts to realize the high goals of peace and harmony.
Before coming to Artek we were very excited about going there We even read all the information available in the Artek website about the ideals and the formation of Artek. After coming to Artek we thought that we may have a tough time and would be competing and striving for becoming one of the best countries in the festival. We thought that it would be a cut-throat competition. But on first night itself, we learned that it was not so difficult as we Indians know the skill of wining hearts with our energy and commitment. Artek is truly a very enjoyable place to be in. You can do all kind of things one want to do or learn mutually. We also had a lot of fun there. We even got an opportunity to choose our hobby clubs. There were all sorts of sports, art and cultural clubs there. The main idea of Artek is-"Let's Change The World For The Better".
We had chosen our own hobby clubs and were attending participating countries' fairs and presentations every day. It is very entertaining and educational. We have read lots of things in school about all these countries, but direct interaction with fellow members visiting artek was a different experience all together learning their cultures and traditions in such an interactive way. After every presentation we had at least an hour of music and dance. During these hours everybody forget about which country the belong to and had full fun. In the peace conferences we were educated about the problems of all children in the world and different ways to tackle them. We were also educated about the different ways of popularizing our cause of child empowerment. The idea of participating in Artek is also to promote international harmony and understanding between likeminded countries.
We had the same goals, interests and ideas. We were united by art, creativity and friendship. We believe we could change the world for the better because it is easier for every one to understand the mind set in spite of languages barrier, express our ideas and to make real friends forever. We wish our country should also have such camps to create unity, friendship, peace and harmony which can pay in the long way for changing the world for the better.
