These five days of summer celebrations will be all about thinking globally and acting locally. It is hosted at YIP, in the beautiful and natural home of this inspired new form of education, which is effectively providing a platform for the empowerment of youth initiative.
Järna is known for its innovative culture of sustainability and community living. The opportunity is to co-create an event whereby both spheres of community can engage in grounded action through consciously designed and meaningful learning spaces and activities, in celebration of YIP: One Year of Making Sense.
A new form of meeting
This is a festival of learning, a new form of meeting that allows you to share in the essence of YIP and really meet your hosts: the 38 emerging young change-makers who embody a unique quality of youth empowerment.
Being immersed in an intense training of how to make positive social change in the world, we are inspired to share our learning with you, and to open the space of Sense Festival to your dreams and aspirations. We aim to provide a source of powerful connections for you this summer.
