What is FEE?

Young Reporters for the Environment (YRE) is one out of five programmes run by Foundation for Environmental Education (FEE). The programme aims to empower young people to take an educated stand on environmental issues they feel strongly about and to give them a platform to articulate these issues through the media of writing, photography or video. The programme offers young generations a chance to make their voices heard while improving their writing and presentation skills.
