Planning a Sustainable Campus: Balancing Growth and Climate Action at UBC

January 25, 2023 @ 5:30 pm - 7:00 pm

Free

How can UBC lead as a model for climate action in the context of a growing urban campus and neighbourhoods? Join Simon Donner, an interdisciplinary climate scientist and Professor at the University of British Columbia, for a presentation and moderated Q&A session on how UBC can take bold and courageous steps to balance growth with climate action on the Vancouver campus. The Q&A session will be moderated by Zana Mody, a former CBC journalist and current PhD student researching climate change mitigation and adaptation for coastal communities.

This is one of many speaker and engagement activities that is happening throughout Campus Vision 2050 – a comprehensive planning and engagement process led by UBC Campus and Community Planning to develop a long-term vision for the physical development of the Vancouver campus.

Childcare will be offered on site in a room near the main event venue. Please indicate if you need childcare in your registration.
