Small Hands, Big Impact: How Young Changemakers are Leading Sustainability Efforts What if elementary students could take the lead in making their communities more sustainable? In this inspiring session, young changemakers from our AISR elementary Roots & Shoots club will share how they are tackling real-world environmental and social challenges through hands-on projects. From reducing food waste and promoting environmental awareness, these students are proving that age is no barrier to making a difference. Join us as they showcase their journey—from identifying problems to taking meaningful action—demonstrating the power of youth-driven initiatives in shaping a better future. Through their story, educators will gain practical ideas for fostering student agency, service learning, and environmental stewardship in their own classrooms. Be prepared to be inspired, energized, and ready to empower the next generation of changemakers!
