Our board consists of two Co-Chairs, Secretary, Treasurer, and five Directors. If anyone has a nomination in mind (either themselves or someone else who is willing to stand) for any of the positions, please send names to us ahead of time at bc@pacname.org.
Science Literacy Week 2019 is all about our OCEANS! NAME-BC will be joining World Fisheries Trust and Hillside Centre in a celebration of science literacy as we sail from coast to coast to coast across Canada’s oceans! Join local science educators and communicators at this one-day, hands-on science extravaganza, featuring a marine touch tank filled with plants and animals from the Salish Sea, STEM-themed arts and crafts, and loads of children’s activities. Science educators and enthusiasts will be on hand to answer all your ocean health and wildlife questions and fill your mind with ways to build science literacy at home.
When: Sunday, September 22, 11 am–5:30 pm
Where: Hillside Shopping Centre, Victoria, BC
