Today, May 17, at 12 noon, young people will have the opportunity to apply for this year's Tartu Youth Work Camp.

Young people aged 13-19 registered in the city of Tartu can register for the Tartu youth work camp. Registration is open until May 23rd.

The youth work camp offers an opportunity to gain first work experience in a supportive and safe environment. Work is carried out in groups, allowing young people to also gain teamwork experience.

The main tasks for youth work camp participants include maintenance work, assistant work in service, on farms, in event organization, and harvesting garden and field produce. Workplaces include local governments, non-profit organizations, commercial companies, sole proprietors (FIEs), and business organizations. Workdays last 4-6 hours per workday, depending on age and employer's capabilities. Youth work camp groups last 7-21 days, depending on the group.
