Young People around the World share Maps to celebrate Earth Day 2013

In celebration of Earth Day 2013, My Community, Our Earth announces our freshly updated Youth Leadership Project Gallery on this page!

The gallery is an interactive map of more than 585 community projects from young people in 52 countries that tells of how students and pupils are making a difference for the environment around the world. All projects use geographic tools like online mapping or even hand-drawn maps to identify sustainable development problems and solutions in local places. 

We recently added more than 300 new projects, most of them supported through the MyCOE Global Connections and Exchange Program, funded by the US Department of State.  MyCOE GCE Classrooms have completed more than 3,000 person-hours online sharing their work and collaborating across borders!
