Employment and volunteer opportunities

Project Overview
Save Our Seine (SOS) is seeking a qualified Outreach-Education Consultant to lead a  public education and outreach project under Phase 2: Connecting People to Nature of the Urban Restoration and Enhancement Initiative (URE). This initiative supports ecological restoration, outdoor learning, and community engagement in Winnipeg’s Seine River corridor and aligns with the UN Decade on Ecosystem Restoration (2021–2030).

Background
For several years, SOS has provided environmental outreach and education to schools and the general public, guided by available funding and volunteer/staff capacity. In parallel, SOS has made meaningful contributions to urban restoration and enhancement (URE) initiatives. Since 2020, dedicated funding has enabled SOS to significantly expand its URE efforts. Most recently, support from the Manitoba Habitat Heritage Corporation’s Conservation Trust is allowing SOS to integrate its restoration work with education and outreach programming. This integrated approach will generate engaging, curriculum-aligned learning materials and hands-on experiences for schools and communities. Through partnerships with STEM educators, Indigenous organizations, and other collaborators, SOS is creating opportunities for place-based learning. The Seine River, recognized as a valuable outdoor classroom, will serve as a central site for immersive environmental education and stewardship experiences.

Goal
The goal of the project is by March 2026 to create and test outreach and education materials and processes that align the SOS urban restoration and enhancement work with SOS outreach and education efforts that are beneficial for schools’ STEM programs, SOS members and the general public.
