November 2003: "Bioneers Youth Initiative Overview"
Author: John Mlade (The Biomimicry Guild)
This month's BioInspire is dedicated to youth initiatives and Bioneers Conference 2003, held this year between October 17-19 in San Rafael, California. The goal of the Bioneers Youth project is to "...support and catalyze youth leaders and educators engaged in environmental and social justice work, and connect them to a network of peers and accomplished mentors. Bioneers youth honor the transformative power of alliance across race, age, gender, class and culture, and importance of diversity in addressing the challenges facing the Earth." The article describes a number of projects, focused on sustainable food production, promoting youth leadership and encouraging green building initiatives.
