New funding opportunity through Learning by Nature
Thank you to Learning by Nature for providing this guest post.
Learning by Nature is a national movement of students, teachers, and school communities enhancing and stewarding nature on their school grounds. They support tracking biodiversity on school grounds and making small enhancements at a large scale. Last year, they funded 104 Student Climate and Biodiversity Leadership Projects in six founding districts in BC and just this March, they’ve launched nationally.
Schools across Canada are now eligible to participate and apply for funding for up to $1000 for student climate and biodiversity projects this spring.
Schools can register for the program for free. Registration includes tools and resources to support health and learning outcomes at school, funding opportunities for student-led climate and biodiversity projects, and professional development for teachers. Plus, students will connect with real projects by the BC Conservation Fund through technology like wildlife cameras and biodiversity data, so they can learn how to take positive action to protect their future and ours.
