For the last 3 years we’ve hosted our annual Youth Symposium, now Chester Zoo’s Youth Summit, with young people across the world of conservation sharing their stories.

We’re delighted to announce the return of our Youth Summit on Saturday 19 and Sunday 20 October 2024 and once again inviting young people 16-35 years old, from across the country to share their experiences, knowledge, and passion for conservation!

Registration cost includes entry to Chester Zoo, access to incredible workshops, presentations, and guest speakers, lunch and refreshments.

Call for presenters!

We’re looking for inspiring young speakers to share their experiences through workshops and presentations over the weekend. Share your knowledge and expertise on youth engagement in conservation, good practice in strengthening youth involvement and empowering young people to take positive action for nature and our planet.
