The Arctic Youth Environmental Leadership Expedition 2005 is the most extraordinary educational Arctic expedition for youth ever undertaken. It will serve as a powerful and unique international platform to create change, inspire, educate, give cause for hope, and raise awareness globally about the impacts of Climate Change and other environmental issues facing the Arctic Regions.
The just released Arctic Climate Impact Assessment (ACIA)*; the Kyoto Protocol; the Arctic Council priorities; the efforts to build 'circumpolar' co-operation amongst northern nations; and the role of the Arctic as cornerstone of our planet's ecosystem, are all perfect fits with the environmental leadership and conservation ethic message of this Students on Ice expedition initiative.
The ship-based journey from Iceland to Greenland to Nunavut, Canada, will involve 80 students, aged 14-19, from around the world, including indigenous students from all of the Arctic Council-Circumpolar countries. The students will travel on this transformative adventure together with a team of 30 world-class scientists, environmentalists and educators, including Justin Trudeau, Dr. Peter Johnson and Sheila Watt-Cloutier. |
