| The Tools for Action Network |
| Please share your ideas with the rest of the Tools for Action student community! |
| The ideas here are by no means exhaustive. We hope to continue adding ideas and activity kits based on your feedback. |
| If you have tried an activity or event in your school, please send us your feedback/comments to chwadhwani@cpar.ca. With your help we can make the toolkits even better! |
| Also, if you have a tried and tested activity/strategy that you would like to share with other students, send us the info and we'll turn it into a new toolkit (crediting you of course). |
| Finally, keep us posted about your activities. Feel free to send photos as well so that we can begin to create a record of Tools for Action online to inspire other students. |
