There were incredible festivities at Hraunvallaskóli last week as the CISV International Summer Camp welcomed guests to step into a unique world of friendship, diversity, and peace.
This summer, children and youth from 14 different countries have taken part in the CISV camp in Hafnarfjörður. They’ve explored different cultures, built meaningful friendships, and discovered the joy of working together with open minds and mutual respect. During the open house, participants proudly shared their cultures through traditional clothing, music, dance and song, and offered guests a chance to sample a variety of delicious treats from their home countries. It was a rare opportunity to experience a small slice of the global journey that CISV summer camps represent. CISV is an international peace organization that promotes peace through friendship and intercultural understanding — and these summer camps are a living example of that important mission.
