We invite you to join us in creating a brighter future for Armenia through outdoor education. At Trails for Change NGO, we believe the transformative power of nature has the ability to build resilience, foster leadership, and create lasting change in the lives of individuals and communities. Your support today will help us expand our impactful outdoor educational programs for the year ahead.
Our Vision for 2025: Empowering Through Education and Adventure
In 2025, we are more committed than ever to reaching individuals who can benefit from outdoor education's healing, growth, and leadership opportunities. Our programs aim to challenge participants, help them overcome obstacles, and equip them with valuable skills that can last a lifetime.
Here's a glimpse at what we have planned for the upcoming year:
Youth For Change Conservation Corps
In 2025, we are planning to organize more than 3 - 1 week outdoor camps in different locations of Armenia by taking youth from underserved communities on wilderness expeditions that teach important life skills such as teamwork, resilience, and problem-solving. These multi-day camps in remote wilderness areas will allow young people to step out of their comfort zones and build confidence and self-reliance in a supportive group environment.
Completing the Dream Trail and expanding the trail network in the Haghartsin area
We are now in the 5th year of working to expand the trail network in Dilijan National Park and finish the Dream Trail, which became a goal for us after our founder Hans Keifer dreamed about connecting the beautiful monastery of Haghartsin to one of the peaks of the area where you can find ancient footprints of our ancestors, ruins of buildings and old paths inside the stunning forest.
Creating the first-ever professional furnished campground in Dilijan National Park
By designing a thoughtful, sustainable, and professionally managed campground, we'll provide a unique camping experience and foster environmental awareness and respect for Armenia's natural beauty. The key is to balance comfort with a deep connection to the environment, creating a memorable stay for visitors while protecting the park's integrity for future generations.
