WELCOME TO THE SPIRIT BEAR COALITION

Simon Jackson, 27, founded the Spirit Bear Youth Coalition at the age of 13 in the quest to unite the voice of young people to save British Columbia’s endangered white Kermode or spirit bear. Through the Youth Coalition, Jackson helped raise international awareness about the plight of the spirit bear – helping make the issue the most supported conservation initiative in Canadian history and having it recognized by Time Magazine as one of the most critical environmental issues facing our planet.

They are now partners to the Youth Accord on Biodiversity.  Thanks Chafic!
