YRE for Students
Do you have a story to share with communities? Be a voice for the environment!
YRE Canada inspires youth ages 11-18 to seek out solutions to environmental and climate issues in their communities and to share their learnings through writing, photography, or videography.
YRE Canada is part of Young Reporters for the Environment – an international program by the Foundation for Environmental Education (FEE).
Share your story and advocate for the health of planet Earth !
Are you 11-18 years old? Do you have a passion for the environment, for climate advocacy, and are looking to amplify your message and learnings through writing, photography or videography? YRE is a unique opportunity to strenghten your leadership skills and deepen your collective impact. Every year, YRE Canada’s national competition looks for the best unique and creative environmental journalism led by youth in Canada. Together, let’s raise awareness !
