Experience Howl

The Howl Experience is hosting a national youth conference, Led By the Land: Banff Youth Gathering!

We are bringing together high school youth and educators from across Canada for a multi-day, land-based leadership experience grounded in both Indigenous and Western ways of knowing. Our focus for this gathering is on how leadership is learned and practiced. Through time outdoors, hands-on activities, and sharing community experiences, participants will explore questions such as: What can we learn from the land? What does it mean to be a good community member? How do we make a positive impact in our community?

November 6 -9, 2026

YMCA Camp Chief Hector, Kananiskis, AB.

$550 per person +gst (With the support of Youth Forums Canada, travel costs will be subsidized for participating school groups. This conference fee includes accommodation, meals, programming, and activities).

Registration is open until June 5, 2026.
