YCC is super happy to welcome Sam Kutyauripo, who officially joined the team as our Vancouver Coordinator. Sam is taking on the role of developing and running the Vancouver area's utterly new program. It is the first program led by Youth Climate Corps in an urban area. We support Sam in this new role and congratulate her for taking on this responsibility.


Sam (she/her/hers) is originally from Zimbabwe and moved to Canada over 8 years ago to pursue an education and career rooted in sustainability...


We are committed to maintaining and growing respectful relationships in every region where we work.

 

YCCBC recognizes that colonization has deeply disrupted Indigenous Peoples’ relationships with their lands, communities, and cultural practices. We understand that the climate crisis is rooted in ongoing systems of colonialism and resource extraction—systems that became possible through the dispossession of Indigenous Peoples from their homelands.

We believe that Indigenous sovereignty is essential to building just futures and liveable worlds. YCCBC is committed to listening, learning, and walking in solidarity with Indigenous communities and to supporting Indigenous-led climate action across the province.

ABOUT US 

Youth Climate Corps BC develops the climate leaders of tomorrow by training a workforce of young people who know how to work together, communicate powerfully, and get things done on projects that contribute to climate resilience in communities across British Columbia.
