About the event
Not everyone who cares about the planet is going to become a biologist, conservationist, activist, or environmental professional, and that’s okay.
In this virtual meetup, we’ll explore how to stay connected to nature and make a positive impact without needing to turn conservation into your career. We'll talk about finding realistic ways to keep nature in your life, stay grounded in what matters, and contribute through your everyday choices, interests, skills, and community.
This event is for young people ages 18–23 who care about the planet but may not be studying environmental science, working in conservation, or sure where they fit yet.
What to expect
A beginner‑friendly conversation with simple prompts to help us explore personal strengths, everyday actions, and real examples of impact from different fields. We’ll pause, reflect, share ideas, and talk about what it looks like to contribute from wherever you are.
