Staff and faculty from across campus recently gathered for Queen’s Global Connect, an event organized to bring together those who identify as international and newcomers to Canada to build and strengthen community bonds, and further nurture an inclusive, globally-minded campus environment.
Organized and hosted at the University Club by a group of international employees from across the university, the June 15 gathering featured food, music, and social networking. This event was funded by the Inclusive Community Fund (Office of the Provost) and serves as a steppingstone toward the eventual creation of a new Employee Resource Group (ERG) for international employees and newcomers to Canada. This ERG will engage and inspire this important community by creating connections with one another, breaking down silos, and taking meaningful action to forge a strong sense of belonging.
