GEEP (Global Environmental Education Partnership) was launched by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, the Taiwan Environmental Protection Administration, and the North American Association for Environmental Education in 2014, and is governed by an executive committee, a secretariat, a global advisory group, and regional advisory groups.

The mission of the GEEP is to create a vibrant and inclusive learning network designed to build capacity in countries around the world to strengthen environmental education leading to a more sustainable future.

Challenge Details

Do you have an innovative idea about how to protect marine life? Or tackle marine debris? Or help coastal communities adapt to the effects of climate change? GEEP is excited to announce its 2023 Youth Innovation Challenge: Saving Our Seas! In partnership with the Taiwan Ocean Conservation Administration (OCA), this year’s challenge provides an opportunity for young people ages 15–30 around the world to share their innovative solutions to protect marine resources and support people of all ages to be engaged stewards for marine conservation. Winning solutions will receive global recognition and a $1,000 USD prize!

The Youth Innovation Challenge is a global competition, so anyone aged 15 to 30 from anywhere in the world can apply!

• An official YIC finalist certificate.

• An invitation to a virtual dialogue with other YIC awardees in late 2023. This interactive dialogue will give awardees an opportunity to share ideas, learn from new perspectives, and expand their networks.
