→ Slight changes in the participation:
Dear PIFapplicant!
After 10 years we realised, we can't - from the organisational and financial point of view - sustain the PIFcamp as it is. What we learned is, that we as a team do not want to become the "all inclusive PIFcamp service", but would rather follow and nurture the idea of PIFcamp as a community. Therefore we are making a small change in the organisation, and just like in the first few years of our camp, we will again ask for a bit more active help from all participants. That means each PIFcamper will need to actively contribute by helping the team with the daily chores (kitchen, breakfast duties, help with cleaning of common spaces, toilet paper refills, emptying the trash bags ...). You will be on duty only for one day of your stay. The amount of work required should also not prevent you from participating in other daily activities.
So, yeah, we are taking a small, but important step back to the basics, taking community participation a bit more serious, but maintaining everybody's comfort. We believe that active contribution will only strengthen the PIFcamp experience and give some of the responsibilities and ownership back to the community. Most importantly we hope it will make the camp more sustainable and independent in the future.
Thank you for your understanding, we are looking forward to your application!

If you wish to participate at the festive 10th 🎉PIFcamp edition, please fill in this form (in Slovene or English).
→ There are two parts of the form. The first part asks for some basic info and the second one is about what you are bringing to the PIFcamp community e.g. project proposal you would like to develop OR an idea you’d like to realise OR your general interest why you’d like to attend. It's not mandatory to apply with a very specific project, but rather explain well why you’d like to join!
→ The number of participants at the camp is limited! In case of receiving more applications than we can host, the selection will be curated by the PIFcamp team. Our two top priorities are achieving equal gender presentation between participants and reducing our carbon footprint. We therefore encourage you to plan your trip wisely and sufficiently. Nevertheless, our main goals is to once again organise the best edition of PIFcamp, it is the 10th afterall.
