NGOs Communication Camp - 3rd Edition
Start date: Feb 1, 2015, End date: Sep 1, 2015 PROJECT FINISHED

The lack of communication and branding knowledge and training is a bigger challenge for nonprofit professionals than it is for marketers at business-to-business (B2B) and business-to-consumer (B2C) companies. As knowledge grows among nonprofit professionals, we expect their confidence in new instruments to grow as well. “NGOs Communication Camp - 3rd Edition” is an Erasmus+ youth mobility that will be implemented between 11-22 May in Păuleşti, Romania. First two editions offered to the host organisation, D.G.T. Association valuable insights regarding the NGOs practices in non-formal education in the DEOR and branding. The third edition focus of the training course is on the following topics: ideation, creativity, brainstorming, storytelling, personal branding, networking, Corporate Social Responsibility and Advocacy. According to these, we’ve shaped a 12 days intensive training course for 32 youngsters (youth leaders, communication specialists, students, entrepreneurs, freelancers and project managers) aged between 20-35 years from seven European countries (Czech Republic, Croatia, Estonia, Ireland, Italy, Poland, Hungary and Romania). The participants will develop a valuable set of skills and competencies through non-formal education methods such as ideation, brainstorming, group discussions, role play, graphic facilitation, self-reflection and interactive presentations. DGT Association intend to encourage the NGOs and youngsters to embrace the professional practices and unleash the creativity of their communication&fundraising departments. The third edition will develop the platform of the project http://ngocommunicationcamp.weebly.com/, a platform where the NGOs can find useful tools and presentations with essential info for their brands and their team. At the end of this training course, 8 European organizations ecquiped 32 youngsters with know-how, non-formal education methods and competencies needed in order to perform in the communication departments of their NGOs or to find a job in the field. On long term, the project is an alarm signal for all the NGOs that need to update their communication strategy and instruments in order to build their reputation and increase the visibility of their projects.
