GreenHouse and the Grebel Peace Incubator invite new and previous community partners to participate in Map the System 2025 by proposing Challenge statements for students to research and address using a systems-thinking approach. This partnership provides a platform for community organizations to gain insights into complex issues, while students have the opportunity to apply their academic knowledge in meaningful and impactful ways.
