Get Involved
If you are interested in our way of learning and living, we invite you to join us!
There are a few ways how you can do that. One of them is to come to one of our camps which take place several times a year. Another way would be to come for a long term volunteering position at our campus.
Olympics – Interschool Sports Event
Tvind Sports OL takes place from the 8th to the 16th of September. The sports event is a long-standing tradition where children and youth from schools and care homes in Denmark get together for two days of sport, games, social interaction and lots of fun. Around 500 people attend the event.
More than 60 disciplines need to be organized- everything from team sports like football, volleyball, and basketball to archery, athletics, cycling, climbing, and other individual sports. There are also many activities for people who are not great sports enthusiasts like giant chess, street art, angling, puzzle games, etc.
The disciplines are organized by students from DNS and schools who train Development Instructors since it is an excellent opportunity to hone organizational skills and teamwork abilities.
This camp is held in late summer, and is free of charge to attend.
Winter Concert – a classical event
The Winter Concert takes place every January. It involves professional musicians, dancers, and singers from all over the world performing unique compositions on our international stage.
The artists involve many students and teachers (from our network of schools) in their performances and bring them closer to the world of classical music, traditional dance and contemporary art. In our school center, we have students with challenging backgrounds. The concert brings a high culture level for the most excluded part of society and their family and friends.
The concert is also open for local residents who can join the concert for free.
This camp is held in January, and is free of charge to attend.
Peace Justice Conference
The Peace Justice Conference aims to bring quality discussions and create a platform to discuss peace and justice by connecting people within our beautiful world’s diversity, connecting the wisdom and awareness with our daily lives and, altogether, strive for a better world.
Keynote speakers come from all around the world and many artists, political scientists, and experts in subjects related to Peace and Justice give workshops during the conference.
Peace Justice Conference Camp
Come help set up the Peace Justice Conference!
As a volunteer, in this Camp you can contribute by creating diverse products based on peace and social justice. This could be theatre, videos, musical performances, murals, or other visual arts and practical preparations. The camp products will be presented at the conference as well. You can join the conference for a weekend or a full week.
This camp is held in late spring, and to attend there are some costs to cover.
Travel To Learn 2025
Stories from Tunisia
As a participant in this camp you will slow-travel with your team all the way from Denmark to Tunisia by bus in a journey full of investigations about topics such as Climate Change, Colonialism, Social Justice, and Globalization. The trip will make you question yourself and will make you go out of your comfort zone by exposing you to new and different realities.
This camp is held from the 26th of June until the 30th of July, arrival on campus is expected between the 24th and 25th of June.
Long term Volunteering
We can offer long term volunteering positions for people who would like to experience the campus’ community life while contributing with a specific skill. The different areas we could use a hand with are garden farming, sustainability, social integration, communication & media. You would receive food and accommodation during the stay.
Garden Farming
As part of our efforts to become a sustainable community, we cannot forget to mention our garden farming! A greenhouse, two large fields, some chickens and other animals make up our school farm.
We grow vegetables, fruit trees and berry bushes, which supply us with sustainable and ecological products through autumn and, sometimes, even winter. All of Tvind’s inhabitants take care of the gardens and enjoy the results!
The task to be carried in this position relates to planning seasonally, maintain and develop the garden.
