That’s the goal of Impact! The Co-operators Youth Conference for Sustainability Leadership. As you can see from some of the quotes below, our participants are certainly excited. The empowerment and equipping comes in just under two months, when 180 students will gather at the University of Guelph to work with business and academic leaders to develop practical sustainability solutions. Here’s some insight into how the participants are feeling as they wrap up their pre-conference research under the guidance of the Research Network for Business Sustainability and get ready to pack their bags.

I am becoming more and more excited as the conference comes closer and I bet you are very busy planning for it! Thanks so much!

I have recently taken The Natural Step’s Sustainability 101 course required for the participation at Impact! conference that will take place in Guelph this coming fall. I learned a lot and did not notice how 80 minutes passed because of the interactive and unusual way of presenting the information. – Andrey, Ontario
