Volunteer Exchanges

Camp Exchanges

What is a Camp Exchange?


AYUDA utilizes its broad contacts throughout diabetes communities in Latin America and the US to facilitate diabetes exchanges for youth leaders between North America and South America. These exchanges serve two purposes. First, they provide each participant with the opportunity to learn and experience the methodology taught at other camps. Second, they empower participants to take a more active role in their local diabetes community while striving to incorporate the skills and techniques they learned abroad. It has been AYUDA’s experience that the participants of these exchanges have demonstrated an increased dedication to improving

the lives of local people living with diabetes, strengthening their national diabetes organizations, and striving to create tangible change on the international level.
