The Impact! Youth Conference for Sustainability Leadership took place from Thursday September 15th to Sunday September 18th, and has involved multiple organizations to design a program that not only educates, but also inspires action in youth.
StarBuzz Weekly, Toronto-Sep 15, 2011 - They took flights, trains, buses and even bikes, but the most promising youth sustainability leaders in our country are finally here! After a few years of planning, the most important weekend of Impact! The Co-operators Youth Program for Sustainability Leadership has arrived. Students are traveling to Guelph, Ontario from every part of the country to attend the second Impact! Conference starting today and running until Sunday September 18th.
The Co-operators have consulted with many different organizations, such as AIESEC and The Natural Step Canada, in order to create the best conference possible. AIESEC Canada was asked to participate during the planning of the first Impact! Youth Conference in 2008, and has continued being involved ever since. AIESEC Canada is an expert in leadership development, and organizes 5-10 conferences a year for its membership in Canada to help students students develop their professional skills and personal leadership styles.
The Impact! Youth Conference is a fantastic opportunity for youth that are not only passionate about sustainability, but are looking to inform and create a movement around it. This program is bound to produce another group of innovative youth sustainability leaders that are ready to challenge the status quo and influence others to do the same.
