 About Me |
The Youth Activist Retreat is a weeklong retreat for youth ages 16-20 who want to create social change.
This year's retreat is taking place from August 13 to 17 in Clearwater, Manitoba. Only youth from Manitoba and surrounding areas are able to attend.
The theme of this year's retreat is Ecological Justice. Workshop topics that will be explored this year include Indigenous Rights/ Decolonisation, Women and the Environment, Labour Issues, How to Organize a Group, Global Justice, and Food Politics. Different art and media forms will also be covered, such as video, radio, zine-making, and political theatre.
To avoid discouraging anyone from attending due to financial barriers, we do not charge a fee for participating in the Retreat. We also provide a travel subsidy for rural and northern participants.
YAR is an excellent training, networking, and community-building opportunity for youth who are interested in social justice or environmental issues.
