For Youth

Join the purpleSTEMwave!

Youth Science Canada calls youth across Canada to join the purpleSTEMwave.

What is the purpleSTEMwave?

The purpleSTEMwave is a call to action for Canada’s youth to apply their natural curiosity and ingenuity to investigate scientific questions and develop innovative solutions to current and future challenges.

The purpleSTEMwave celebrates and unites every young Canadian who asks ‘how’ and ‘why’ and transforms those powerful questions into action – in the form of a STEM project.

The purpleSTEMwave reflects YSC’s goals of:

• inspiring Canadian youth and providing resources and opportunities that enable them to complete STEM projects regardless of cultural background, socioeconomic status, or geographic location.

• ensuring that youth can share their discoveries and innovations at the local, national, and international level.
