Mountains to Ocean: Three-Week Immersive Program
Attention: Teachers, parents, and youth in the Lower Mainland! We're recruiting for another Mountains to Ocean cohort starting in July! Mountains to Ocean is a 3-week immersive program for youth aged 15–21 that explores the deep connections between land and sea. Through three outdoor learning adventures, participants gain hands-on experience, connect with like-minded youth leaders, and design a community project inspired by what they’ve learned.
Example excursions* (taking place outside school hours), include: 🚠 A guided hike up the Sea to Sky gondola to learn about to discuss geology, glaciers, biodiversity, climate change, and mountains across cultures and time. 🌲 Volunteer and learn about native plants and the importance of community gardens at The Norquay Community Food Forest. 🚣 A boat tour along Stanley Park, West Vancouver, Lighthouse Park, visiting a thriving seal colony and the iconic Siwash Rock and False Creek. Mountains to Ocean aims to help alleviate eco-anxiety through learning and action, while making tangible, lasting differences in youth’s communities for a healthier, more sustainable future. Learn more and apply at the link in our bio! Upcoming cohorts: Cohort 2: July 10 - 31. Application deadline: July 3, 2025
