Announcing the University of Calgary as the Next Host for SDSN Canada
After six years hosting SDSN Canada, the University of Waterloo will transition hosting duties to the University of Calgary, effective July 1, 2024.
We are proud to have been the inaugural host and beyond proud of everything SDSN Canada has been able to accomplish. We believe giving other Canadian institutions the opportunity to lead SDSN Canada will strengthen the network and support the ethos of the SDGs to have distributed and diversified leadership structures.
