2026 04 01 Sustainability Commission, Education and Outreach Committee

This City of Eugene Sustainability Commission Education and Outreach Committee meeting held on April 1, 2026, focused primarily on planning for an upcoming panel discussion involving youth and sustainability efforts. The committee discussed finalizing questions for panelists, aiming to engage high school and college students on topics related to climate action, sustainability participation, and how the city can better support youth-led initiatives. They emphasized concise, focused questions to allow all panelists to contribute within a 45-minute session. Additionally, the committee planned outreach activities for the Reimagine Earth Day event on April 19, including staffing a table with an interactive "spin the wheel" activity to engage the public. They also discussed coordinating with local schools and youth groups to secure panel participants and volunteers. No contract awards or procurement decisions were made, but the meeting involved organizing community engagement efforts and event participation logistics.
