Engagement and Impact Assistant Co-op; UBC Centre for Community Engaged Learning
Working for the UBC Centre for Community Engaged Learning (CCEL) I have had the opportunity to develop programming for UBC students and community partners on various food, environmental, and housing justice topics. Here I helped facilitate partnerships between Metro Vancouver community organizations and created opportunities for students to venture beyond UBC and take on tangible projects in their communities.
I learned how to facilitate large events and programming which brought together diverse groups of people in a collaborative manner and how to not only create a space for people to learn from one another but how to ensure there is a meaningful lasting impact.
