Menopause Documentary, The [M] Factor: Before The Pause (Perimenopause)
Menopause is a transitional stage in many people’s lives and affects not only people experiencing this stage in life, but those around them including colleagues, family and friends. Education, resources and support have the potential to create more comfortable and inclusive communities and workplaces and empower people through this transition.

PAIR Speculative Futures Visiting Writer Series
iCal
The Pan-African Initiative for Research (PAIR) Speculative Futures Visiting Writer Series brings visionary writers working in Afrofuturism, speculative fiction, and related genres to Waterloo to engage with students, faculty, and community around diasporic futures, worldbuilding, and resistance narratives.
Black, Indigenous, and Racialized Students' Writing Cafe
The Black, Indigenous and Racialized Students' Writing Café is a social writing group. Unlike traditional peer feedback-based writing groups, we don’t read each other’s finished writing: instead, we write together to create a community of writers who can cheer each other on during what is often an isolating, difficult journey!
Living Books Exchange
Join the Libraries for an opportunity to connect with others in the UWaterloo community to discuss how we build trust in science in a media environment where everyone claims to speak “for the science,” and how equity and inclusion shape these conversations.
