The CityStudio Abbotsford team invites everyone to attend the HUBBUB # 14 on Thursday, Nov 21, between 8:30 am and noon in Abbotsford City Hall. This HUBBUB is part of the Involve Abbotsford Symposium, a free one-day event focusing on learning about sustainability and how to integrate it into your work and organization.
Symposium attendees may cast their votes for the most engaging and innovative project poster in the People’s Choice Award category. The top CityStudio Team Award will also be selected by the mayor of Abbotsford in close collaboration with the group of adjudicators from the City and UFV. The award announcements will take place between 11:45 am and noon.
This HUBBUB’s key community partner is Tourism Abbotsford supporting the CityStudio-inspired Experience the Fraser project in Experiential and Work-Integrated Learning. The project honours Abbotsford’s most precious resource — the Fraser River, supporting students to 1) use GIS, urban design, Indigenous storytelling, and trauma-informed narrative, 2) gather community perspectives on the river, 3) disseminate that information, and 4) facilitate recognition of its value and commitment to sustainability.
This project is generously funded by the iHUB – CEWIL Canada grant. It engages students from english, biology, geography, and planning courses, and showcases their imagination, original thinking, and technical skills. Additional projects focus on food security, the impact of climate change on community livability and other subjects that speak to the issue of community sustainability.
No registration is required to attend the HUBBUB. If you wish to attend the Involve Conference workshops, please register at the following link.
