RIEEA Annual Summit
2025 RIEEA Annual Summit a great success!
Our 2025 Summit: Youth Leadership for a Sustainable Future, presented by SouthCoast Wind, took place on the morning of Saturday, March 15, 2025 at the Rhode Island College Donovan Dining Center.
We were delighted to have youth from the Groundwork Rhode Island Green Team present to us. The morning also included a delicious breakfast, small group discussions, lots of great networking opportunities, and a raffle to support our programming.
Thank you to the Groundwork Rhode Island Green Team – Khalil, Bormey, Veasna, Nebvla, Dasan, Diya, Jaylyn, Sophia, Steph, and Sarah – for a thought-provoking keynote presentation, Rhode Island College for hosting us, Wanda Hopkins for her land acknowledgement, all of our sponsors for supporting the event, and to everyone who attended!
