Join a team volunteers organized by AMS Sustainability to learn about what recycling, food waste, and landfill items fall into the sorting stations inside of the Nest. This waste audit provides a hands-on opportunity for students to help UBC progress towards a zero-waste community. Data collected from this audit will allow the AMS to identify current waste practices and how they can be improved.
The workshop aims to create a space for discussion and unlearning while highlighting the interconnected challenges of food insecurity, gentrification, white supremacy, and colonialism with an approach rooted in anti-oppression and decolonization. With a focus on community care and justice, we will navigate the intersections of these deeply rooted systemic issues, while acknowledging and valuing the diverse experiences within our collective histories and communities.
