SCARP showcases innovative perspectives across numerous fields from UBC, Vancouver, and beyond. This time, SFU Associate Professor Kamala Todd gives her talk, Stories in the Indigenous City: Deepening knowledge, widening “community”.
In one of our most exciting events of the year, after months of research, community engagement, partnerships, and planning, our Planning Studio student teams present their project findings and formal proposals to our community partners across BC.
The Planning Student Association at SCARP are launching their 2025 student-run symposium. Their theme this year is ‘Pie in the Sky', and they invite you to dream of a better future for cities and discuss the roads to get there.
UBC and the School of Community and Regional Planning gather and teach on the traditional ancestral and unceded territory of the hən̓q̓əmin̓əm̓ speaking xʷməθkʷəy̓əm (Musqueam) people.
This acknowledgement is only the beginning of our due diligence: our commitment is shown not in our affirmations but our actions.
Approach planning in your vision. Attain the knowledge, skills, and applied experiences to be the facilitators and leaders of positive change. Build your network.
As a SCARP student, you already have resources available to help you through your program and begin your journey as a planner.
SCARP will continue to benefit you throughout your journey as a planner, with resources, networking, and a lot more. You have a network of peers, too. (photo credit: Mulugeta Ayene, for WLE-CGIAR)
