This month has been an incredible period of growth and movement for YCCBC.


How is your garden coming along on your side?


For us, tending to the earth, planting seeds, and ensuring the environment is conducive for our plants has been a metaphor for our work at YCCBC.


In this issue, you'll find exciting updates about YCCBC Youth Committee, the welcoming of two new team members, the launch of the Kwakwaka'wakw Revitalization Project (KRP) Edition 2024, the start of Wildsight's programs in West and East Kootenay, news about the campaign for a provincial Youth Climate Corps in BC, green job opportunities, and much more!


Happy reading and thank you for being a part of our journey!


 
 
 

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.
