    Can you hear me now? Polar bears’ ears are small and round and close to their bodies to help them conserve heat. Keen hearing and their other sharp senses help them survive in harsh arctic conditions.

PBI Leadership Camps

Leadership Today for a Better Tomorrow

PBI Leadership Camps are for motivated individuals who want to advocate—either personally or through their organization—for conservation and sustainable lifestyles. Attendees arrive receptive, eager, and creative. They leave educated, inspired, and empowered to make a difference.

Campers observe polar bears in the wild and learn about climate change first-hand from experts while aboard mobile classrooms on the tundra near Churchill, Manitoba. PBI Leadership Camps:

  • Focus on polar bears, their arctic habitat, and what needs to and can be done to safeguard the well-being of polar bears and their habitat
  • Offer structured and unstructured sessions presented by renowned scientists, educators, and community members
  • Emphasize knowledge, judgment, and action
