The Youth Environmental Summit aims to encourage youths to take ownership of the natural environment by introducing them to hot-button environmental issues. Participants can expect to learn about global environmental issues such as urban development, environment conservation and explore the idea of ‘sustainability’ on a deeper level.

​

Some of the activities include inspirational seminars by experts, workshops as well as educational site visits to various places in Singapore - for example, the Lee Kong Chian Natural History Museum and NEWater plant. The Summit will culminate in a business model competition where participants will be called to discern on an environment-related problem they face in their respective home countries, design a business model and finally implement the solutions when they return home.

​

Most importantly, participants will be more conscious about how their lifestyle affects the environment by the end of the Summit, thereby equipping them with the conviction to truly be Changemakers.
