Information
Description:


The Centre for Global Education, TakingITGlobal  and Green Learning teamed up with school boards across Canada to host the National Virtual Town Hall on A Canadian Climate Change Strategy. This brought together thousands of youth from all across the country, for thousands of hours of online collaborative work.  At the end of the process, the students took their work, and on behalf of Canada’s youth, presented their vision for a Canadian Climate Change Strategy to government and industry leaders and tooktheir whitepaper to the United Nations Climate Change Conference (COP20) in Lima, Peru.



Attached in the students' whitepaper.
