Community Engagement Day
Project Description
Community Engagement Day is a new project from SEDE that aims to celebrate and recognize community engagement efforts connecting McGill to Montreal community groups and organizations. The project is not intended as a one-off event; rather, it’s meant to serve as an entry point and celebration of a broader culture of community engagement at McGill.
On Friday, October 5th, 20 group community engagement activities occured on campus and around the city. These activities highlighted some form of collaboration between the University and a Montreal community organization. Students, staff, faculty and alumni were encouraged to participate in these activities, during which they learned experientially about the societal issues and challenges facing communities in Montreal while doing something to address them. Activities included public discussions, community walking tours, urban gardening, and youth mentorship, and more.
