Event details
Supporting Indigenous, Black, and People of Colour (IBPOC) leadership is one of the key recommendations highlighted in the Climate Emergency Task Force report. The UBC Sustainability Hub recently completed the IBPOC Student Engagement Consultation Project with the aim of better understanding IBPOC engagement needs on our campus and building internal capacity to support IBPOC students in their leadership efforts related to sustainability and climate action. The findings of this report also serve as an important resource for how community engagement work in general can be structured equitably for IBPOC community partners.
In this session, you will:
- Learn about the UBC Sustainability Hub’s IBPOC Student Engagement Consultation Project process, findings, and recommendations.
- Discuss key themes including recognition and equitable compensation.
- Consider how the findings apply to your community engagement work.
