More than 1,200 inner-city children will attend UWinnipeg’s Eco-U summer camp next month, participating in fun environmental activities with a focus on Indigenous science. This free camp — now in its seventh year — aims to address summer learning loss while removing the barriers to participation commonly faced by inner-city youth. Since the camp’s inception in 2007, more than 6,000 children from approximately 35 inner-city schools have attended the program, making it the largest day camp for children in inner-city Winnipeg.
