Sneha Chhavanis - Camps
Since the first Shiksha Shivir held at Lonavala (Karla Holiday Camp) in May 1974,
Yuvak Biradari has been organising Rashtriya Sneha Chaavni (National Youth Camps) every year during summer/winter
vacations for the development of the youth. It is aimed at channelizing the potential of the youth towards a
constructive movement that will lead to their personal and societal transformation. The camp is an opportunity
for rural and urban youth to develop leadership qualities and to sail unhindered towards the heights of success
in their careers. The camps also motivate, encourage and direct the youngsters to participate and lead social
responsibility movements in their own ways.
These camps are held every year at various places in India, wherein 250-500 students and
youth representatives from all over the country participate and enrich their experiences. The camp experience makes the
participants socially cohesive and sensitive to each other’s concerns. Participants go through a number of lectures,
seminars and experiential activities on various subjects relevant to their daily life, like self-employment, career guidance,
leadership, innovation, ethics as well as on important issues like national integration, environment protection,
universal brotherhood, peace, national duties and social responsibilities etc. Art appreciation, yoga, fitness are also part of
the workshop module. These youth representatives coming from different cities, towns and far-off villages of India are, later on,
trained to conduct similar workshops on relatively smaller scale at their native places to extend similar benefits to other people.
Upto 2010 more than 17000 youth and students have participated and benefited from
110 such camps organized at various places in India. Some of the chhaavni/camps held at various places in India include:
