Showing students that a career protecting land and water is real, reachable, and theirs for the taking.
Many of today’s youth are passionate about pursuing careers in the environmental field, yet they often lack a clear understanding of the paths and opportunities available to them.
Broad Water Innovations addresses this gap by working directly with students, highlighting their potential to take meaningful action in preserving natural resources through ecological restoration — and how both public and private investment play a vital role in protecting our environment’s most valuable assets.
BWI’s education program connects with high-school students in AP and IB Environmental Science courses, offering real-world insight into careers in ecological restoration and stewardship. Throughout the year, we organize panels of industry professionals who visit classrooms, and invite students into the field to experience restored ecological sites firsthand.
