SUMMARY:March Break Youth Day Camp
DESCRIPTION:For details see: https://www.yorku.ca/cifal/day-camp/\nWith the increasing frequency and severity of natural and human-made disasters, there is a growing need for professionals trained in disaster and emergency management. Technological advancements have transformed the field, introducing tools like virtual reality simulations, drone technology and geographic information systems (GIS) for disaster response.\nThis day camp is designed to expose high school students to these emerging technologies, inspire interest in emergency management careers and provide hands-on experience with tools used by professionals in the field. By engaging students in real-world problem-solving activities, the program also fosters critical thinking, teamwork and digital literacy skills – preparing them for future academic and career opportunities.\nThe camp will feature hands-on workshops in virtual reality (VR) training, app development, coding for emergency management, drone safety and applications and simulation/mapping software. The goal is to provide students with a unique experiential learning opportunity while allowing faculty and staff members to bring their children to campus during March Break conveniently.\n
