1st & 2nd Period: Studies about The Present and The Future
This is a deep study of the present world and takes a futuristic view on how to deal with the developments in the world as we know them today. It is an intensive training program where teamwork is a central element in the daily life. The team builds an essential support system to allow each individual to develop the skills and capacity needed to do much more than when they started the program. This also means each individual must take an active part in making cooperation work between people of all backgrounds.
Outreach and community work is an essential element during the 6 months training period to build capacity and both make a necessary contribution for people in need and spread awareness to mobilize others to support them. Although there are clear demands, the participants in this program are very much a part of developing the program and the daily life activities at the school. To take part in this program, you must be ready to learn new skills and be ready to transform yourself. You qualify for the program through your enthusiasm.
The 6 months intensive training period at DRH South Zealand (The Travelling Folk Highschool), focuses on building a TRIO (groups of 3 working together) in order to specialize in building practical and theoretical knowledge and skills for the period of development work in Africa.
