Critical Action Lab

Teens using critical thinking to create change in their communities. 

What is the Critical Action Lab? 

The Critical Action Lab (CAL) is a paid internship program for teens passionate about climate action. CAL Fellows apply critical thinking skills as they work together to plan activities designed to engage their peers in spreading awareness about climate change and learning how to take action in their communities.  

The first group of CAL Fellows began work in Fall 2023! They are designing and hosting a series of activities, including the upcoming events listed below.

What Does it Take to be a Critical Action Lab Fellow? 

The Critical Action Lab program is designed to support dedicated, driven teens who are witnessing the effects of climate change on the world around them and want to do something about it. Through the program they are provided with the resources and learn the skills needed to make an impact. 

The Fellows meet weekly to discuss and plan activities aimed community building and helping other teens learn how to take action on issues that matter to them.

Applications for the 2024-25 program are now closed. Check back soon for more information about the events we'll be hosting this year!
