Peel Environmental Youth Alliance

Based on our strong student expertise, and adult support at Ecosource, PEYA assists other students and teachers looking to create sustained environmental change in their schools, and helps students build their capacity to affect positive environmental change in their schools and community.

PEYA unites students across Peel working to improve the environment in their schools and neighbourhoods through monthly networking meetings, and an online community. We provide a forum for students to learn from one another and form relationships with local environmental organizations.
In the community, PEYA is a catalyst for youth participation in environmental policy-making and is committed to exploring best practices for youth-adult partnerships.

PEYA organizes fun and effective educational events, engaging students across the Region, including leadership and skill-building workshops as well as our popular annual EcoBuzz Conference and Region-wide Stewardship Day.
