Calling all young leaders aged 16-30 with a passion for sustainability and community wellbeing! Are you proud of where you live and have ideas on how to improve youth engagement around climate solutions? Are you interested in connecting with and learning from fellow youth living in other regions of British Columbia?
Committee members will:
1. Connect and collaborate with similarly passionate, sustainability-minded youth in BC
2. Learn more about unique climate change and sustainability issues across the province
3. Gain hands-on leadership experience in organizational governance and planning, supporting FBC in sustaining organizational momentum in the long-term
4. Network and build relationships with sustainability leaders across multiple sectors such as civil society, business, and government
5. Connect with nature and build bonds through a paddle trip with fellow Committee members (all expenses paid!)
