PBI Communicator Leadership Camp

This week-long camp brings together leaders in informal education. They return to their communities informed, inspired, and equipped to mentor a stewardship ethic.

The camp is open to educators and communication specialists affiliated with PBI Arctic Ambassador Centers and PBI's partners. In 2011, participants will have a unique opportunity to join with campers in Teen Leadership Camp.

Campers will:

  • Observe polar bears in their natural setting and experience the tundra
  • Learn how climate change affects polar bears and their sea-ice habitat
  • Establish and fortify relationships with field scientists, colleagues, and Churchill residents
  • Share ways to inspire people to action—from individuals to entire communities

Communicators report on their experience in their group blogs. Before leaving, each participant will develop a goal and action plan for a community-based polar bear conservation project or a project that supports AZA’s Climate Initiative.
