Queen's is participating in #SDGMonthCanada throughout March 2025!
SDG Month Canada is a national collaboration that invites universities and colleges to organize workshops, panels, and interactive programming to increase awareness of and engagement with the UN 17 Sustainable Development Goals.
Led by Sustainable Development Solutions Network (SDSN) Canada, Colleges and Institutes Canada, and UBC’s Office of Sustainability, events are organized independently by participating campuses and meant to draw on diverse disciplinary perspectives to unpack challenges and solutions related to advancing the SDGs.
At Queen’s, the Principal’s Office is organizing an SDG Month at Queen’s Event Calendar to promote learning, teaching, and networking opportunities for students, faculty, staff, and alumni during the month. Anyone planning an SDG-related event or activity at Queen’s in March is invited to submit the details to be included in the event listings below.
Queen's is proud to be one of the many institutions across Canada developing programming for this campaign! Please indicate that your event is part of #SDGMonthCanada in any promotions.
