Thank you for your interest in attending the Future Changemakers Summer Camp 2024! Purpose The Future Changemakers Summer Camp aims to instill a passion for environmental sustainability in young minds, especially given our planet's challenges. Participants can better understand the issues and potential solutions by integrating various academic disciplines like geography, politics, and business. Empowering youth with knowledge and real-world skills prepares them for future leadership roles and cultivates a sense of responsibility for our environment. Offering such programs during the summer allows students to explore their interests outside of traditional classroom settings and engage in hands-on learning experiences. York University's Faculty of Environmental & Urban Change is paving the way for the next generation of positive changemakers by providing these enriching opportunities. Camp participants will make significant contributions to environmental sustainability in the future! What is the Future Changemakers Summer Camp Bursary? A bursary will provide financial assistance for program registration fees, covering up to 75% of the cost, determined individually according to economic circumstances. Applicants for the bursary must indicate the specific program they wish to join. If approved, the bursary amount will be directly deducted from the program registration fee and will not be disbursed to the recipient. Extended before and after-care services are not eligible for scholarship funding. Applicants requiring these services must pay their fees in full before receiving a bursary award. Who is eligible?
