Italy
participants
The aim of this activity was to increase the ability of the participants to orient themselves in the city, even though it was still new for them. They had a map to help them and some destinations to reach, in which they had to take a photo.
As part of the secon semester Welcomes Day, in our Sports Day we tried a new disipline, Orienteering. With the help of a map, the participants had to walk/run around the city, reaching some destinations we gave them as fast as they could. They couldn’t use Google Maps or similar, but they could only trust their ability to orient themselves, even though they didn’t know the city so well. The participants were divided into some teams and had to compete against each other. At the end of the activity, the winners (who finished the route in less time) gained a small prize.
