BAD CAMBERG, Germany — The European Collegiate Association for the Research of Principles (CARP) concluded its 2026 Summer Workshop on August 30 in Bad Camberg, Germany. Gathering under the theme “Chariots of Fire,” young adults aged 18 to 35 from across the continent participated in the seven-day event, which ran from August 24 to 30.
Directed by Marko Skrodzki and Robert Karagezian, the workshop aimed to foster spiritual renewal, character development, and active leadership among European youth. The week-long program offered a dual-track educational curriculum designed to meet the varying needs of attendees:
- Inner Growth Track: Designed for guests and members looking to explore foundational spiritual principles, deepen their faith, and reflect on personal growth.
- Leadership Training Track: Focused on developing practical leadership skills, character integrity, and civic responsibility for participants taking on leadership roles in their home communities.
While specialized lecture sessions were split by track, participants reunited for joint afternoon activities, sports, discussions, and evening cultural programs. The “Chariots of Fire” theme served as a central motif throughout the week, encouraging participants to cultivate passion, resilience, and personal conviction in addressing modern social and personal challenges.
The workshop concluded with participants sharing reflections and strategies for implementing community service and youth outreach initiatives in their respective home countries.
