Campus + Community Planning 

As leaders and partners, we plan and design the campus communities through open thinking and engagement.

Stadium Neighbourhood  consultation begins today

We’re beginning to plan a new neighbourhood in the 22-acre area around Thunderbird Stadium, and we want your input and ideas
to help shape this process.

There are two ways to participate in this first phase of consultation and provide your feedback:

1. Through the online survey from September 28 – October 22

2. By attending any of our public open houses

Apply for a community animation grant


Do you have a great idea for a community project?  Want to hold a canning workshop, an intergenerational storytelling project, a street party, or a book exchange? Need the funds to make it happen? Apply for an UTown@UBC Community Animation grant by October 22.

The grant program is made possible through a partnership between UTown@UBC, the Vancouver Foundation Neighbourhood Small Grant Program and the Musqueam Indian Band.

The program awards up to $1,000 for projects that help build community and strengthen connections right where people live, work and learn. Musqueam community members, UBC students, faculty, and staff are all eligible.
