Workshop 1 - Program Kick Off

As an ambassador, you’ll join a regional network of like-minded youth to connect, collaborate and make your voice heard. Together, you’ll take part in exciting events and hands-on projects that promote sustainability and environmental stewardship.

Workshop 1 is all about understanding the program, getting to know other youth ambassadors in your area, and beginning to brainstorm ideas for environmental project activities for you to undertake (with plenty of help from your workshop leaders!).
