Conference Presentations

Post-pandemic, Simon Fraser University (SFU) developed the Community Vibrancy Playbook to welcome students, staff, and faculty back to campus. We'll discuss how the campus community can participate in a wide array of initiatives that lead to collaboration, programs, and projects that transform the campus into a welcoming place that prioritizes wellbeing. Positive student experiences are vital and institutions can benefit from including new activities that enrich student life and participation. Come learn how to employ facilitation and listening as tools in project management and embrace adaptability to change, leading to successful outcomes for campus life and the student experience.

Learning Outcomes:

1. Discuss how to effectively develop an action plan for animating the campus and creating a sense of place, belonging, and wellbeing for students.
2. Identify key priorities through a proposed rubric that reflect institutional vision and aspiration while developing pillars of action to enhance the campus experience
3. Detail an effective design process from planning to implementation that will improve wellbeing and belonging for students on campus.
4. Appreciate and consider the influences of climate and seasonal change on student life and wellbeing while generating ideas and starting points for campus initiatives.
