My Five Year Plan
Kutasha Bryan-Silva presented her five year plan at the Stone Soup Leadership Institute's 15th Youth Leadership Summit. Her plan included reflections on where she was five years ago and how she achieved her previous dreams. Her current dreams are to work as a federal researcher in a think tank, travel the world supporting education and health for children, be happy with a supportive community, and perform her original music frequently. Her dreams for her community and the world include establishing a public performing arts school in Vieques, Puerto Rico and ensuring accessible, quality education for girls globally. She believes persistence and a healthy lifestyle will help her achieve her dreams and complete her doctoral studies to work in a think tank within five years.

Within 5 years, he hopes to help educate and connect communities globally through education and technology projects. This summer he will help educate youth, and within 6 months and a year respectively continue his startup and get a job advancing his goals, allowing him at 5 years to fully pursue making education and connection available worldwide.
Life Doesn’t Always Go The Way You Planned
Trevor Tanaka gave a presentation about how his life and career plans have changed since college. Originally, he planned to become a physical therapist or pharmacist, but he now dreams of working in sustainability consulting and owning a health business. While he created a plan after college, he has since pursued a graduate sustainability certificate from Harvard and adjusted his goals. His key lessons are that plans often change and it's important to take risks and adjust plans based on new opportunities and interests.
Futures in Health - Chiara Solitario - 2017 Intern
This document discusses futures in health and opportunities in the healthcare field. It describes the work of community health workers in connecting clients to primary care physicians and social services. The document also discusses developing interest in healthcare careers through hands-on experience, improving the nursing pipeline, and creating a mentoring program to support underserved youth and widen investment in healthcare careers. The next steps outlined are to improve existing nursing pipelines, create an industry mentoring program, and emphasize community investment in youth pursuing healthcare careers.
An Invitation to Connect
The document invites ex-students of schools under the Borivali Education Society, including Sheth G H High School, M. K. High School, and R.C. Patel High School, to join the Past Students Association of Borivali Education Society in order to connect with classmates, create a community, and contribute to social causes; contact details are provided for the President and Secretary.
Building Healthy Communities - Hoque and Holland - 2017 Intern
The document discusses building healthy communities through community associations and shared spaces. It recommends investing in neighborhoods by establishing associations, providing training, and collaborating on projects. Specific recommendations include improving accessibility, visibility, placemaking, and infrastructure for the North Main neighborhood as a model. The overall goal is to address safety concerns, provide gathering spaces, and catalyze positive change.
Obesity1
The document discusses obesity rates and consequences in Utah, with over half of adults being overweight and one-fifth being obese, and proposes a community program to address this issue through education on healthy eating and exercise, support groups, and incentives to encourage lifestyle changes and weight loss. The program aims to reduce obesity rates in Ogden by 50% by the end of 2014 through these community classes, resources, and support.
After School Programs
The document discusses the need for an improved after-school program in a low-income neighborhood in Waco, Texas. The current Weldon Youngblood Branch Boys and Girls Club program has only 3 staff members and basic facilities, but lacks a vision for growth. A new perspective recognizes that the community is resistant to change and more comfortable with the status quo. The summary proposes reaching out to local churches, businesses, and volunteer programs for support to attract new members, help run the facility, and provide the resources needed to achieve a higher quality after-school program.

Task Force On Sustainable Lifestyles Presentation
Lifestyles are part of our identity; people express their social position, political preferences and psychological aspirations to others through them. Lifestyles define and differentiate us. They are the way we live our lives.
Lifestyles are shaped by a whole host of factors. Their roots are in culture, politics, economics and social norms. For sustainable lifestyles to enter our cultures and societies, to become part of our everyday life, they must be developed at all levels. They need to be enabled and encouraged by the social and technical systems and institutions that surround us. People will only swap their car for public transport if there’s an efficient and cost-effective public transport system.

1) The document discusses the island of Terceira in the Azores archipelago of Portugal. It describes Terceira's geography, climate, soils, and current agricultural practices.
2) Currently, dairy cattle farming dominates Terceira's agriculture. However, land availability is a problem for expanding other agricultural activities.
3) The document proposes several measures to increase food self-sufficiency on Terceira by reducing imports and boosting niche crops like tropical fruits, honey, donkey milk, and organic farming. This would improve the local economy and quality of life.
Renewable Energy: UNSDG Goal #7
The document discusses pathways for achieving total electrification and eliminating fossil fuel use on Terceira Island through increased renewable energy. Currently, renewable sources provide around 38% of the Azores' electricity, with geothermal (24%), wind (9%), and hydro (4%) predominant. Climate change impacts the island's renewable sources: increasing temperatures slightly reduce geothermal output while changing wind and rainfall patterns affect wind and hydro production. The document outlines Terceira Island's existing geothermal, wind, and hydro infrastructure and production. It proposes increasing geothermal and installing more wind turbines. A battery system was recently added to store more renewable energy. Fully transitioning will take at least 20 years to achieve nearly 100%
Ana Sophia Mifsud, RMI (Rocky Mountain Institute)
Ana Sophia Mifsud outlines three lessons she has learned in her career working on climate change: 1) Addressing climate change does not require sacrifice but can be enjoyable and lead to interesting opportunities, as shown through her experiences in solar energy education and internships. 2) Successful climate action requires contributions from diverse people with different skills and backgrounds. 3) Maintaining hope through focused, practical actions each day ("applied hope") helps sustain work over the long-term to address this challenging issue, as Amory Lovins said.

Sena Wazer: Climate Education & Youth Advocacy
Climate education is not being adequately taught in US schools, despite 20 states receiving low grades and 60% of youth feeling worried about climate change. The document discusses the importance of climate education for equipping youth with knowledge, empowering action, and career exploration. It outlines some state policies, like Massachusetts requiring K-12 climate education. Connecticut passed climate education through student advocacy, like writing testimony and mobilizing over 50 youth. Young people must continue leading this work given their experience and urgency around the issue.
Job Shadow Day 2013
This document profiles several students involved with the Martha's Vineyard Youth Leadership Initiative (MVYLI). It discusses Isabella Hazell-El Deiry, a 17-year-old senior who has taken on leadership roles within MVYLI around multiculturalism and organized the first Multicultural Assembly at her high school. It also profiles Charlie Pikor, a senior who has been involved with MVYLI's job shadow program and community service projects. Finally, it discusses Jacob Lawrence, another senior who served as Master of Ceremonies for MVYLI's Multicultural Assembly and participated in MVYLI's job shadow and college prep programs with a interest in communications and public relations.
PowerDocks LLC
This document summarizes a presentation about PowerDocks LLC, which develops autonomous floating microgrids that provide solar power and communications capabilities. The company's products can power moorings and marinas sustainably without fossil fuels while adding value through features like electric vehicle charging and IoT sensors. PowerDocks sees a $4 billion market opportunity and has received industry awards for its innovations. It is seeking strategic partners to accelerate commercialization across areas like sensors, energy storage, and underwater technologies.
Out of Sight, But No Longer Out of Mind
The document discusses the need for investment in water infrastructure in the United States and the shortage of qualified water and wastewater operators and technicians. It notes that over a trillion dollars will need to be spent over the next 25 years to maintain aging water systems. Additionally, 33,000 operator jobs will need to be replaced in the coming years due to retirements. Bristol Community College received a grant to develop new training programs through its Blue Center for Water Technologies to address this need in the New England region and help create a pool of qualified drinking water and wastewater operators.
