The EcoLogik Institute hosts two free summer camps annually for female and non-binary-identifying youth ages 10-15. During these camps, our campers and apprentices get hands-on experience and mentorship in a wide range of STEAM subjects ranging from Herpetology to Science Communication. Ecologik’s goal is to inspire, mentor, and train the next generation of scientists and conservationists.
