We strongly believe that scientists should be visible within and actively engage with the communities where they live and work. Further, ensuring that there is visibility of and support for diversity at all levels of science is essential to adequately support the next generation of environmental scientists.

  • Guest instructor, Winter Limnology Field Camp, Nunavut Arctic College (Iqaluit, NU)
  • Science fair project judge (Edmonton, AB)
  • Invited speaker, grade 8 science class (Ottawa, ON)
