Structure and Programs
Actua operates on a membership structure, consisting of member organizations located at 31 university and college institutions across Canada. Actua’s member programs are delivered by Undergraduate science, engineering and technology students and high school students through science camps and workshops, which they customize to the needs of local communities.
The programs use hands-on activities in fields such as health, mining, biology and ecology. The majority of member organizations also travel outside the urban centers where they are located to deliver camps and workshops in rural and remote communities.
The programs include:
- National Mentorship Program
- National Aboriginal Outreach Program
- National Girls Program
- Go Where Kids Are Program
