Established in 1993, Let’s Talk Science is a national, charitable organization that provides engaging, evidence-based science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) programs at no cost for Canadian youth and educators. We provide educators with opportunities to discover and use effective learning strategies to support and strengthen students’ questioning and problem-solving skills; and offer experiential and digital programs that engage youth in meaningful STEM learning.

Our goal is to reduce the environmental impact of the organization by assessing choices, diverting waste and building sustainable practices.
