Our partners & student volunteer opportunities

CUCCR diverts materials from Concordia’s waste-stream, offering them to the general community for free. Sustainability Ambassadors at CUCCR help the team sort and display new items, chat with community members entering the space to help them find what they need and get connected to the sustainability community, weigh items as guests check out, and research creative ways to reuse or maintain everyday items to share with peers in person and virtually. By the end of the year, you will have created at least 2 educational posts for CUCCR’s social media, have created strong connections with regular visitors, and helped organize and facilitate a Don’t Buy That event!

Fair trade contributes to the empowerment of rural populations around the world. As a Fair Trade certified campus, Concordia provides Fair Trade-certified products on campus, encourages the use of Fair Trade products among our community, and encourages Fair Trade engagement and education.

LPVR aims to provide a safe, accessible, inclusive, and affordable bike repair facility for Loyola students and residents of NDG. This includes building safe and reliable bikes and selling them to the community at an affordable price. 

Cinema Politica is a media arts, non-profit network of community and campus locals that screen independent political film and video by Canadian and international artists throughout Canada and abroad. Cinema Politica’s biggest and longest running local was founded at Concordia University, Montreal in 2004 and ever since it attracts hundreds of audience members to its weekly screenings. Each semester’s programming is focused around themes that touch on social justice, environmental and cultural identity issues, and all screenings aim to bridge political independent filmmaking, local activism and civic education and engagement.
