Participant Info

Who are the students that will be involved in the Forum?
We love eco teams, but we encourage you to bring members of your class if possible. Incorporating sustainability Action Projects into curricular teaching helps engage all students and avoid teacher burnout! Not sure how that will work? Don't worry, that's what our PD is all about!

Student Info

Each school can bring up to 7 students to the Youth Forum.
These students will represent your class/club/school and act as ambassadors to bring ideas and inspiration from the Forum back to their peers.
