Young Reporters for the Environment (YRE)
Young Reporters for the Environment (YRE) is a network of passionate young people educating for sustainable development by producing creative and engaging environmental journalism. Coordinated by the Foundation for Environmental Education (FEE), YRE is in more than 30 countries worldwide and growing! Northern Ireland is proudly one of these countries thanks to the excellent participation of our students and teachers.
Through the support of Mars Wrigley Foundation, we are delighted to support schools in implementing their anti-litter and waste projects to reduce waste production, pollution and promote positive behaviour change to protect our biodiversity and improve our communities.
The Housing Executive also support the Young Reporters for the Environment
We have worked in collaboration with the Housing Executive to develop a CCEA GCSE English Language from September 2017, Controlled Assessment Task for Unit 2: Speaking and Listening. Please feel free to share this with Your English Departments. It can be downloaded here.
Prize money is available for this project.
