Each school group is limited to 25 students, with 2–3 chaperones allowed per group.

 

The Michigan Student Sustainability Summit is a unique opportunity for middle and high school students across Michigan to connect with peers, learn about the state’s environmental sustainability efforts, network with state leaders and community partners, and celebrate the impact of youth-led stewardship projects.

Through interactive breakout sessions, field experiences, and exhibits, participants will explore environmental career pathways, develop place-based projects, and engage with experts on Michigan’s air, water, land, energy, and ecosystem services.

Registered attending schools are invited to prepare a poster to display in the student project gallery at the summit, highlighting successful youth-led environmental action projects.  Please reach out to Samantha Lichtenwald, LichtenwaldS@Michigan.gov for more information.

Recipients of EGLE’s Environmental Service Awards and Michigan Green Schools certifications will be recognized and celebrated at the summit.

Join us for a day filled with exploration, learning, and inspiration, as we collectively work towards building a more sustainable and environmentally conscious future. Together, let's empower the next generation of leaders to champion positive change for our planet.
