STUDENTS: Become a Community Green reporter

Our Community Green Guides program:

High school and college age youth connect with and learn from local people who own businesses, run non-profits or community groups, and work in government or schools that are engaged in various aspects of the green/sustainability movement. You then use various media to communicate what they and their work are contributing to making the Triangle and the world a better place. You can learn about interesting career options, and how these folks arrived at the place they are in their career path. The projects you can participate in include:

INTERVIEW the person who is doing work that you are interested in learning more about.

WRITE ARTICLES/STORIES based on your interviews that will appear on the website and eventually be compiled into a book.

TAKE PHOTOGRAPHS/ MAKE VIDEOS of the people you interview; they will also be added to the website. A DVD of the video shorts will be created at some point as well.

OFFER PROGRAMS to educate your peers and the community about the resources in your community, and tell your stories of what you are doing.

CREATE ACTION PROJECTS collaborate with others to create solutions oriented projects in your community based on your assessment of the assets and opportunities.
