Mission Statement
Actua is dedicated to unlocking the infinite potential of youth through transformational STEM (science, technology, engineering, and mathematics) learning experiences. The organization works relentlessly to remove barriers to youth engagement by addressing inequities both at the local and systemic levels. Its mission is to widen pathways to STEM education and careers and to build youth skills and confidence for a better future, ensuring every young person has barrier-free access to meaningful STEM opportunities.
Geographic Focus
Actua reaches youth across Canada through a national network of more than 40 universities and colleges. Its programs serve young people in over 600 communities, engaging participants from all corners of the country. This wide geographic reach positions Actua as Canada’s largest STEM outreach organization, impacting youth aged 6 to 26 from coast to coast.

Each year, it engages about 500,000 youth in interactive workshops, summer camps, and land-based learning experiences. Signature initiatives include Actua Academy and InSTEM for-credit land camps, focusing on building employability skills and supporting Indigenous and underrepresented communities. Programs are delivered by trained instructors, supported by a volunteer network and member universities and colleges, ensuring quality and accessibility at every level.
