Hello Thetis Islanders!
Join Project -Re- Generation (ReGen) alumni, Kaia and Kasian, along with Olena Russell and myself in a place - and action-based workshop at the ThINC Nature House (The Portal) on Friday, November 12 between 9:30 - 11:30. During the 2-hour period, we will be guiding you through a hyper-condensed version of ReGen, unpacking the learning and design process through a series of activities, while sharing its impacts on both students and community members alike.
For those of you who are unfamiliar with ReGen, here is a brief overview: ReGen is an immersive place - and project-based learning experience designed to inspire, empower, and activate youth to become engaged community members through design thinking and regenerative action. Participants learn by doing: exploring and connecting with place; engaging with community experts from diverse backgrounds; and working collaboratively on an authentic sustainability project of their choosing.
Over the last year, ThINC has hosted the program in both its hybrid form (Summer-Fall 2020 and Summer 2021) as well as the full, 8-week pilot program last spring! To learn more about the program, please visit the ThINC website: https://www.thetisislandnatureconservancy.org/project-re-generation
In addition to getting a better idea of what the program is all about, your participation and feedback will help us prepare for our Pro-D Day workshop later this month. Wahoo!
