Priorities

Waterloo at 100

What do we aspire to be known for by our 100th anniversary in 2057? In 2022, thousands in the Waterloo community participated in consultations and discussed the University’s future. Drawing on the unconventional spirit of our founding, our community put forward ideas to reinvent the culture of our institution as we build a better future.

Sustainability

Waterloo's Environmental Sustainability Strategy was developed by the President's Advisory Committee on Environmental Sustainability through a collaborative process. This strategy is built around three mutually reinforcing and interdependent goals: to be a leader in sustainability education and research, to operate the campus sustainably, and to embed sustainability practices into campus culture.

President’s Anti-Racism Taskforce (PART)

In consultation with the University community, PART developed eighty-eight recommendations to address racism at the University. Implementation of such a comprehensive set of recommendations requires all member of the institution's community to make a commitment to enact changes here at Waterloo. Anti-racism is the shared responsibility of the entire University of Waterloo community – not that of a specific leader or a campus unit.
