Environmental Brigades is a student-run organization that promotes and educates about sustainable development by taking an eight day trip (Brigade) to Panama, and participating in sustainable development volunteer activities on campus. Volunteers develop strategies to address the socio-economic challenges that link to resource depletion and by providing education to community members on the import
ance of preservation while expanding their farms or businesses. Volunteers’ activities are focused on reforestation and waste management. Volunteers have the opportunity to work with community members to help build tree nursery in order grow sustenance trees to later be planted, and to provide education and help structure waste management.
