From 25 August to 1 September, the second edition of the ECO Summer Camp took place at Lassalle Haus in Switzerland. This is a format of the conference house where young adults spend a week dealing with sustainability and the challenges of the future. The aim is to contribute to rethinking and change in environmental and social issues. The more than fifty participants from twenty countries not only benefited from the lectures and discussions, the Lassalle House, its special architecture and location also stimulated reflection, relationship and spirituality.

Valerio Ciriello had prepared the programme for the event. He hopes that the ECO Summer Camp will create lasting relationships and networks among the young volunteers. Joining the young adults this time were slightly older participants who shared their experiences on the topics with the younger ones, such as economist Fr Gäel Giraud, who offered an innovative perspective on understanding the economic system and the tools needed for ecological transition, and the director of the Jesuit European Social Center Fr Peter Rožič, who offered individual coaching sessions to the participants throughout the week.
