Climate Solutions Innovation Forum – The Starfish Canada Showcase
Event Details
What began as a blog in 2010 has grown into an environmental education charity that empowers youth to imagine and build a climate-resilient future. Through writing, workshops, and community gatherings, The Starfish Canada helps strengthen connections across the environmental sector, welcoming individuals from all disciplinary backgrounds. We envision a climate-resilient future shaped by all youth.
In this webinar, they’ll explore the origins of The Starfish, the evolution of our impact over the past 15 years, and how we’ve remained flexible and responsive to community needs as a capacity-building organization. They’ll share how our programs continue to engage new voices, center equity-deserving groups, and incorporate Indigenous guidance through the lens of Two-Eyed Seeing. You’ll hear firsthand from program participants and current staff as we dive into not just the numbers behind our work, but the stories that bring our mission to life.
The Climate Solutions Innovation Forum is a multi-year program that highlights newer innovative environmental nonprofits who share the story to inspire emerging leaders and/or to expose seasoned leaders to new ways of affecting change and reaching new audiences. CSIF shines a light on less traditional policy-oriented NGOs, youth led organizations as well as recently emerged culturally-focused ENGOs mostly at the fringes of the mainstream.
We thank the Ivey Foundation for their funding support of this series.
