The Redfish School of Change is a non-profit program designed for people who want to lead the way in creating ecological sustainability and social equity in their communities.
The inaugural year of the Redfish School of Change started on May 17 at Little Slocan Lodge in the West Kootenays. While participating in this intensive six-week field school, our group of 16 students, 3 intrepid instructors and special guests along the way will travel from the mountains of the Slocan Valley to the marine coast of southern Vancouver Island. We will visit innovative sites and engage with experts in the field of environmental and social justice. We will explore the wilderness of Valhalla Provincial Park, and witness the changing nature of the Fraser River as we paddle from Hope to Vancouver. We will learn critical skills for creating positive change, putting them into practice during and after this unique program.
Living and learning with 15 other participants, each of the students will endeavour to develop the capacity and confidence to be agents of change in our community on the issues that matter most.
