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

“Women over fifty already form one of the largest groups in the population structure of the western world. As long as they like themselves, they will not be an oppressed minority. In order to like themselves they must reject trivialization by others of who and what they are. A grown woman should not have to masquerade as a girl in order to remain in the land of the living.”
—Germaine Greer (b. 1939)
“Will TV kill the theater? If the programs I have seen, save for “Kukla, Fran and Ollie,” the ball games and the fights, are any criterion, the theater need not wake up in a cold sweat.”
—Tallulah Bankhead (1903–1968)
