Campo Scholarship - Agape’s Summer School

Agape’s Summer Scholarship 2021
As of today, Agape will accept scholarship applications (application form found at the bottom of this page) for 2021 international adults camps. The application deadline is May 20th, 2021.
The Scholarship program is the international summer school of Agape Ecumenical Center. The summer school brings together three perspectives on the world: one linked to one’s own body, one to the surrounding society and finally to transcendence. The scholarship program therefore offers a transversal view of theworld through the Agape approach based on community life and exchange.
Everyone who is interested in the theme of a camp and who is willing to be involved in it’s community life is able to take part in it. These are the basic things that are needed in order to have meaningful meetings with each other and a real exchange of ideas. At the beginning of its history, Agape was mainly attended by Protestants. However, very soon Catholics and non-believers began to take part in the camps too. Today Agape is attended by people that identify themselves in many and varied spiritual practices.

Agape provides scholarships for people over eighteen who want to take part in the international camps at Agape. This year due to the pandemic we will accept requests from European countries or European neighbour countries. Regretfully, we are not able to meet every request for financial aid since the demand is greater than the funds that we have available. All applications will be considered carefully.

The three camps in the scholarship program form a unique experience and then we will accept only candidates who will participate in the whole period (two weeks). Exceptions are to be agreed with the management.

Please note that the scholarship program is not a tourist experience and that it will not be possible not to participate in the activities of the camp for tourist reasons. International camps for summer 2021 will be in English. This year it will not be possible to host interpreters and therefore we will not be able to offer simultaneous translation in several languages.

Agape reserves the right to deny the reimbursement to those who give false declaration during the application phase.

Criteria
Scholarships are awarded to applicants according to the following criteria. It is very important that you refer to these points when completing the application. Priority will be given to applicants:

• who have never attended a camp at Agape
• who show interest in Agape’s activities and are motivated to come to Agape
• who can provide a support letter from an organization/a group that is already part of Agape’s existing network
• who will provide a short motivation letter
• whose expenses are in part covered by their organization/local groups
• who will share their experience with other people once they return to their community

For summer 2021 we request applicants to participate to the whole two weeks of international camps, it will not be possible to participate to only one of the tree camps (theological, oikonomia, ultragender). The program is to be intended as a unique proposal for a group of 20/25 participants from the 30th of July to the 13th of August 2021.

For summer 2021 international camps will be only in English, there will not be the possibility to host interpreters and therefore to guarantee simultaneous translations in diverse languages like in the past years.

What to Apply for
In completing the scholarship application form, please tell us how much of your stay and travel fare you will pay (we suggest that you or your organization cover at least 10%). We also encourage you to apply within your organization for some financial assistance. External financial support will help us to make camp scholarships available to a greater number of participants in need of assistance.

1 – Fill out and send the application form on our website: https://agapecentroecumenico.org/en/campi/agapes-summer-scholarship/

Travel to Agape and Reimbursement
Travel costs will be reimbursed at the beginning of the camp in Euros (not possible in dollars or other currency). We do not usually provide funding before the camp begins, if you have problems with the advanced payment of tickets, please contact us, we may help. Please arrive in Turin airport. Arriving at Milano Malpensa airport is suggested only if travel costs are significantly lower (more than 80 Euros). Please check your application before leaving your country and present all your travel receipts upon arrival at Agape. Without receipts you will not receive reimbursement. In case of electronic ticket, please provide the receipt with the total amount of reimbursement you require. Participants are expected to arrange their own travel to Agape, in order to arrive around 4 pm on the camp’s start date. Agape will not reimburse Visa fee (please discuss with us any special request before arriving in Agape).

Attendance at the Camp
All scholarship recipients are expected to attend 100% of the camp/conference and join all activities. No late arrival is possible. You should plan to leave only on the last day of the camp, usually in the morning, unless you are staying on to volunteer for work camp. In case of late arrival or early departure, scholarship reimbursement will not be released.

• Partecipare a un campo ad Agape significa far parte della vita comunitaria del Centro per un certo periodo di tempo. Chi viene ad Agape per partecipare a un campo, a un soggiorno di studio o a passare un periodo di ferie è invitato a rispettare alcune regole.

  • Gli iscritti e le iscritte accettano di partecipare interamente alla vita del campo con le sue attività di studio. Partenze anticipate e arrivi posticipati non sono consentiti; in caso di partenza anticipata imprevista la quota non è rimborsabile, nemmeno parzialmente. I tempi per l'arrivo e l’accoglienza, il primo giorno di campo, sono importanti da rispettare per motivi logistici e organizzativi, allo stesso modo, è importante la puntualità per quanto riguarda il giorno della partenza.

  • È molto importante la segnalazione anticipata di eventuali problemi di ordine medico, (medicine, allergie, diuresi, fobie, ecc...), o dietetici (allergie alimentari, cibi vietati, ecc..; in questi casi sarebbe davvero importante che ci segnalaste eventuali necessità almeno una settimana prima, per permettere alla cucina di attrezzarsi in modo adeguato Allegate un foglio al momento dell'iscrizione e parlate direttamente alla staff all'inizio del campo.

  • A ogni partecipante si chiede di collaborare nel servizio a tavola e nell’asciugatura dei piatti, tanto perché si tratta di un aiuto necessario quanto perché rappresenta, per noi, un importante segno di condivisione del lavoro.

  • Avrete la possibilità di confrontarvi con la Staff a inizio campo se ritenete di avere patologie che possano influire sulla vostra partecipazione alle attività del campo. Ci farebbe molto piacere conoscervi e chiacchierare con voi nei mesi che precedono il campo. Per informazioni di tipo logistico potete rivolgervi all’ufficio o alla Direzione del Centro, che in caso di necessità vi fornirà i recapiti diretti della Staff.

  • Durante il campo è prevista una breve gita: sono quindi necessari giacca a vento, scarponcini (o robuste scarpe da ginnastica), zaino e borraccia.

Il Centro risponde del denaro contante e degli oggetti dei/lle partecipanti ai campi solo se espressamente consegnati in custodia. Agape chiederà il rimborso di danni provocati dalle persone ospiti..

  • Agape non può somministrare medicinali. Se vi sono necessità particolari è necessario fornirsi dell’occorrente prima di arrivare. Il dispensario farmaceutico di Prali non è aperto tutti i giorni.
