Community engagement is about the power of relationships. The UBC Community Engagement podcast features conversations with community and UBC members about their innovative and collaborative community-university partnerships. In this podcast, we learn about the people behind these projects and their unique journeys to create a more just and equitable future. We acknowledge that UBC’s campuses are situated within the traditional territories of the Musqueam, Squamish, and Tsleil-Waututh, and in the traditional, ancestral, unceded territory of the Syilx Okanagan Nation and their peoples.
