The CBT supports healthy youth development by empowering youth to gain the necessary skills and capacity to positively impact their lives, the lives of others, and to contribute to community change and sustainability.
Education is recognized as a social determinant of health and is a key component of youth empowerment. Since 2002, the CBT, in partnership with Genus Capital, has provided annual education awards to graduating high school students to attend post-secondary school. The CBT also supports experiential learning for youth by providing field trip funding to each school in the biosphere region and by sponsoring local youth to participate in the Students on Ice Foundation's annual Arctic expeditions.
