We are already hard at work planning YCAC 4 with The Sustainability Project
YCAC 3.0 was on November 7, 2024 at Harmony Centre in Owen Sound.
The Sustainability Project and Learning for a Sustainable Future with support from Grey County, Small Change Fund, Community Foundation Grey Bruce, Bluewater District School Board and Bruce-Grey Catholic District School Board, welcomed 125 students and 25 teachers from schools across the region!
Each school sent educators and up to five grade 6-8 students to this safe and welcoming event, that included:
Professional development for teachers to learn how to connect climate to their curriculum
Hands-on workshops for students
Library of virtual workshops to keep learning with their whole class
Action project funding to turn their project idea into reality
Special Thanks to: Learning for a Sustainable Future, Small Change Fund, Grey County and Community Foundation Grey Bruce
