The 36th Caretakers of the Environment International Conference will be the first ever hybrid CEI conference, allowing for both physical and virtual participation. It will be hosted by Costa Rica from July 4th - July 8th 2022.&nbsp;The conference will be hosted by Golden Valley School (GVS) and the Fundación Madre Tierra Verde (MTVFund) with support from the CEI Alumni Team. The organising team will be led by co-hosts Gerardo de Vega (MTVFund) and Georgina Grillo (GVS), with assistance from GVS students Daniela Gutiérrez and Max Meoño who will lead the volunteer team.&nbsp;​A pre-conference to give a taster of what to expect at CEI 2022 will take place on March 19th. There will also be a number of pre-events to help schools find partners for project and to learn more about how to undertake projects. Registration for the conference is now open. So now is the time to start getting together your delegation of interested students and begin thinking about your project. A delegation consists of high school students (aged 12-18) accompanied by a teacher or youth leader. Each delegation will present a project at the conference based on the conference theme either virtually or in person.&nbsp; <h2>Water</h2><h2>The people we need for the water we want</h2>There are then 3 conference sub-themes that you can structure your project around:&nbsp; 1.
