Narrative:
[We were] climbing out of FL210 for FL280 when the flight crew was notified via ED1 of a left and right engine bleed warning message. Checked the ecs page which showed both engine bleeds were closed and the aircraft was depressurizing. The QRH was conducted under the bleed warning tab. While running the QRH it ordered us to prepare the aircraft for unpressurized flight. We advised ATC that we need to stop the climb and descended to 10;000 MSL due to the loss of pressurization. At this point we were north of any mountain terrain and then talking to center. After following the QRH the aircraft was fully depressurized and we were level at 8;000 MSL. We then contacted dispatch and told them of our condition and that we needed to divert. Since this was an international flight we told dispatch that we would like to divert to ZZZ since it was a company operation and had customs. All of us concurred that ZZZ would be a good place to divert too. At that point I believe ZZZ was 80 miles away. We then informed the flight attendant's and the passengers of our aircraft condition and that we were going to divert to ZZZ. The aircraft landed safely without incident; and the passengers deplaned and cleared us customs. We did not declare an emergency since we were able to descend down to 10;000 MSL; without having the cabin climb above 10;000 MSL; while following the QRH; nor were there any issues with the crew or passengers due to the depressurization. We landed with approximately 10;500 pounds of fuel on board. After landing maintenance was contacted and the maintenance issues were written up in the maintenance log. Also; dispatch and scheduling were contacted. The flight was then canceled.
