Youth Climate Action

  • The Youth Engagement Funding Initiative (YEFI) is an annual funding opportunity offered by the Climate Change Education Centre that supports youth-based projects relating to climate change.  Providing up to $1000 in support to youth of Newfoundland and Labrador, monies may be used to enhance existing initiatives, or may be applied to the development of a new project.

  • Past projects have included environmental awareness campaigns, such as recycling and composting education, and climate action projects, such as the development of hydroponic gardens, beekeeping, and more.

  • YEFI applications for 2023-2024 are now closed, but will open again next year!
