The 2013 Western Canada Leading the Way Youth Summit on Sustainable Urban Transportation is a regional event is modeled after previous CUTA national and regional youth summit gatherings. The aim of the event is to provide youth with a keen interest in public transit and sustainable transportation the opportunity to gather to learn, share ideas, discuss issues, network and explore career paths. Participation is open to youth 18 – 28 years of age who are residents of BC, Alberta, Saskatchewan, Manitoba, Yukon and the Northwest Territories. Delegates are selected by a merit based application process. This is a cost neutral event where we cover the travel, accommodation and food costs for all the 65 youth delegates so that financial cost is not a barrier in attending this event.
Promotion of the event will start at the end of January and will be focused on delegate solicitation.
All event information, as well as the on-line delegate application can be found on the event website:
www.LeadingtheWayYouthSummit.com.
Application deadline is February 25, 2013.
We have also created a YouTube clip promoting the youth summit:
