goBeyond Youth Action Gathering


August 31, 2010 to September 05, 2010


The goBeyond Youth Action Gathering, supported by the Sierra Youth Coalition (SYC), the Sustainable High Schools Project, and the BC Campus Climate Network, is taking place from August 31st to September 5th, 2010. We are inviting high school and post-secondary
participants to register, and we are offering opportunities for workshop facilitators, youth steering committee members, and other volunteers who would like to be part of this amazing experience.
goBeyond is a youth-led project which works to educate, inspire, engage and support our peers in taking climate action at British Columbia's schools, colleges and universities. We believe our campuses can goBeyond climate-neutral by taking responsibility for social and ecological impacts while taking the opportunity to create
climate change solutions for our communities. The Sustainable High Schools Project aims to improve the economic, social, and environmental sustainability of Canada’s high schools by engaging students and empowering them to measure and improve their schools’ level of sustainability.

The 2010 Youth Action Gathering will allow you to develop your grassroots organizing and leadership skills, network and bond with fellow students, and engage in fun activities in the great outdoors while enjoying great cooking!
