Columbia Kootenay Fisheries Renewal Partnership


ROCKY MOUNTAIN EDUCATION SERIES
Wildsight-Elk Valley Branch - (Fernie, BC)
$10,000.00

The Rocky Mountain Education Series is designed to facilitate learning experiences for local youth (grades 4-12), which promote responsible citizenship, entrepreneurship, and encourage environmental responsibility, while providing youth with confidence, experience, knowledge and skills. Two educational programs will be delivered: the Zero Waste Program and Beyond Recycling Program. Both programs will promote understanding and awareness of local waste issues, explore creative solutions to minimize and utilize waste, and ultimately empower young people to make a difference locally while addressing issues that are of concern on a global level.

These programs culminate in a community based education event, the Community Gala Eco-Event, which will offer an excellent opportunity to showcase solutions and highlight the creativity of students, while simultaneously advocating the importance of re-utilization.
