We are excited to announce the first Regional Student Environmental Conference hosted by Manchester University’s Center for Environmental Resilience and Social Engagement and Earth Charter Indiana.

This regional student conference aims to connect and engage students in environmental stewardship, education, and action. The day will include sessions to inspire students, to have meaningful dialogue and connect, and to share and discover actionable ways to address environmental issues.

The Bug Chicks
The conference highlight is our plenary session with entomologists and award-winning educators, Kristie Reddick and Jessica Honaker, The Bug Chicks! The Bug Chicks specialize in connecting STEM and social-emotional learning and use bugs as a tool to help people foster empathy for themselves, others and the natural world.
