The Antiracist Youth Leadership Institute (AYLI) Outdoors program: Re-membering our connection to land, water and culture, is a series of outdoor engagement events that promote education and civic engagement for children and families who live in urban settings across Albuquerque and surrounding areas. The series will engage youth ages 18 years and younger in outdoor activities that promote climate education, learning about local history and culture and create opportunities to participate in community led civic engagement actions.

Anti-Racist Youth Leadership Institute (AYLI Outdoors) is a series of outdoor events we plan to organize and facilitate in 2022-2023 with a focus on remembering our connection to land, water and culture, and promote education and civic engagement for youth who live in urban settings across Albuquerque and surrounding areas. The AYLI series will connect youth to the rich heritage and culture of NM communities as well as understand the vital role we play in sustaining green spaces and creating access for communities who haven’t historically had access to it due to unfair policies, laws, history, etc
