Eco-Summit

The Eco-Summit is an optional activity that gives students the opportunity to share the green initiatives they implemented during the year. The tentative date for this year's high school Eco-Summit will be in April 1, 2023.

Participation in the Eco-Summit helps students:

• Gain confidence in sharing the green message with a larger audience

• Actively engage in their role as young community leaders, capable of articulating and building consensus around their vision for the future

• Demonstrate their ability to make informed decisions about environmental issues through research, analysis and creative thinking

• Improve communication skills and gain self-confidence through public speaking

• Share stories, exchange ideas, and connect with other like-minded students

Eco-Summit Objectives:

• Work with students to foster civic responsibility

• Facilitate discussion with others about sustainable solutions for environmental challenges

 Guidelines:

Activities will include an opening and closing ceremony, a showcase of green exhibits and a series of presentations based on the core topics of the program. 

Interested schools will need to fill out a registration form. Schools may be eligible to receive Eco-Summit grants to prepare and attend this event.
