10 years ago, students voted "YES" on a referendum question to transform Concordia University into one of the most sustainable campuses in Canada. This year, the Sustainability Action Fund Concordia is celebrating its 10th year anniversary.

Steven Guilbeault, co-founder of Montreal-based NGO Équiterre, will give a keynote address on sustainability initiatives and progress in university campuses accross Québec. The keynote will be followed by a sustainability panel made of Concordia community members and moderated by Julia Couture-Glassco.

The panellists:
Steven Guilbeault - Co-founder of Équiterre
Mohamed Shuriye - Co-founder of the Sustainability Action Fund Concordia
Chantal Forgues - Sustainability Coordinator, Concordia University
Satoshi Ikeda - Professor at the Department of Sociology and Anthropology, Concordia University
Erik Chevrier - PhD Student, Concordia Food Groups

Following the panel, our team will be awarding two $500 scholarships to this year's recipients of the SAF Sustainability Scholarship.

This event is free and open to all students and community members. The location is accessible to people using wheelchairs and other mobility aids.
