Project scope
What is the main goal for this project?

The Green Career Centre’s mission is to prepare underrepresented youth for green careers. With a focus on supporting BIPOC, newcomers and women, the Green Career Centre works by and for these communities to bridge the gap between equitable, accessible and transparent social and environmental employment opportunities. With a climate justice lens and through ongoing consultations and focus groups, the Green Career Centre bridges the disconnect between these underserved communities and green careers in sustainability. We offer resources, events, and a strong network of support in order to integrate underserved communities into the green labour market in what is currently Canada.

What tasks will learners need to complete to achieve the project goal?

Students interested in photography will have several tasks to complete including:

- Taking photos of our events including our green career fair, career development workshops and speaking engagements

- Editing photos for use on our website and social media
