A “Youth Camp” has been organized for the children of martyrs.

Within the framework of the project, the INNOLAND Incubation and Acceleration Center conducted a series of educational and practical sessions for children of martyrs aged 7–23.

During the “Urban Planning Creativity” activity, teams used the provided materials to design and present innovative city models. Trainings on innovation and idea generation were also organized. Participants joined interactive sessions on the concept of startups, idea development, and presentation skills.

Throughout the program, young participants enhanced their creative thinking, problem-solving, and effective idea presentation skills.

The project was organized by the YAŞAT Fondu and the Ministry of Youth and Sports of the Republic of Azerbaijan, with the support of the Goranboy District Executive Authority, the ASAN Könüllüləri Təşkilatı, the INNOLAND İnkubasiya və Akselerasiya Mərkəzi, the Baku Psychology Center, and the Azerbaijan Human Resources Association.
