Join us for a town hall meeting to help shape the vision for a Green New Deal for Canada.
This event is one of many Green New Deal town halls being held in communities across the country in May and June 2019. The conversation is being led from the ground up through town halls bringing together people from all walks of life to discuss our vision for a new economy — one that cuts global warming pollution, sees the full implementation of the UN Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples, the Right to Free Prior and Informed Consent, and the TRC recommendations, creates millions of green jobs, and makes sure no one gets left behind. The input from these town halls will be used to inform a vision for a Green New Deal for all.
This event is being organized by graduate students from the Institute for Resources, Environment and Sustainability at UBC, the UBC Climate Hub, and UBCC350. It is a student-focused event, but all are welcome to attend.
We acknowledge that this event will occur on the traditional, ancestral, unceded territory of the Musqueam people.
