Youth Can Innovate NL (YCINL) is a youth-led nonprofit that gives young people across Newfoundland and Labrador a place to learn, create, and try new things. We believe opportunities should be accessible to everyone, which is why our programs are free for youth. We offer six different hands-on workshops focused on areas like STEM, innovation, entrepreneurship, leadership, creativity, and community problem-solving. Instead of charging registration fees, we often ask participants to bring recyclable materials that can be reused in activities and projects. It keeps our workshops accessible while also encouraging young people to think creatively about sustainability and waste. Our workshops aren't about sitting and listening to a presentation. Youth get to build things, work in teams, solve challenges, pitch ideas, experiment, and learn by actually doing. Most importantly, we want young people to feel that their ideas matter and that they don't have to wait until they're adults to make a difference. Providing opportunities. Building brighter futures.
