2023 Global Learning Conference – Junior Zebras Program

Dublin, Ireland

The Ehlers-Danlos Society is collaborating with the incredible Camp Joy to bring you an exciting Junior Zebras program for children and teens. Sessions will run on August 3, 4, & 5, 2023 alongside the main event in-person sessions at the Global Learning Conference in Dublin, Ireland.

The Junior Zebras Kids program is suitable for children aged 6-12, and the Junior Zebras Teens program is for teens aged 13-17.

Camp Joy specializes in helping children to understand and manage their chronic illness in a non-medical setting and to learn and bond with others living with the same condition. They seek to educate children in a non-medical setting and allow them to create memories together in a fun setting! Some of the activities the Junior Zebras will be taking part in are:

  • Creative movement and keeping active
  • Teambuilding games
  • Self-advocacy
  • Songs and stretching
