Wabanaki Youth in Science 

Wabanaki Youth in Science (WaYS) is a grass roots, community-based education program started in 2013. With initial support from the National Science Foundation’s Experimental Program to Stimulate Competitive Research (NSF EPSCoR) Program. Our varied educational programs encourage persistence in science through collaborations with Cultural Knowledge Sharers and western science professionals at camps, after school programs, and mentor-led internships.

WaYS’ priority is to work with and for Wabanaki communities to provide experiential learning opportunities for Indigenous youth.
