Checklist of items to bring to DTI Summerschool

During the period of the Summer School — from late August to early September — weather conditions in the Münsterland region can vary significantly. Participants may experience anything from cool, rainy days with temperatures around 15 °C and chilly nights to hot, dry summer days exceeding 30 °C. It is therefore essential to be prepared for a wide range of weather scenarios, including both sun and rain.

To support a productive and enjoyable experience, participants are encouraged to follow these general tips:

  • Start each day with a proper breakfast to stay energized.
  • Stay hydrated throughout the day, especially during outdoor activities.
  • Wear appropriate clothing in layers to adjust to changing temperatures.
  • Use sunscreen and insect repellent when needed.
  • Get sufficient rest each night — the program can be physically and mentally demanding.
  • Keep personal belongings safe and always carry essential documents.
  • Stay open-minded and respectful in all group interactions — cultural exchange is a key part of the experience.
