Who we are
This is Embark Sustainability
We’re an independent, student-centred not-for-profit, based out of Simon Fraser University, creating space for transformation by catalyzing student sustainability journeys that centre justice, equity, decolonization, diversity and inclusion. We do this by engaging students in programs, events, and other initiatives that spark dialogue and cultivate action to address systemic challenges within our climate and food systems.
How we work
Let’s take action together
Our approach to reaching a just, equitable, and sustainable future for all students is broken down into two priority areas: Climate Equity and Food Justice, with the objective of inviting students to explore the complexities of climate equity and food justice through community conversations, creative crafting, and other events and workshops.
Climate Equity
We work to convene students and community members to bridge climate science and social justice through knowledge mobilization and institutional advocacy.
Food Justice
We uncover students’ personal and cultural connections to food systems by promoting equitable and sustainable food production, distribution, and access.
Become an Embarker
Get involved
Embark Sustainability members include all students enrolled in an SFU undergraduate or graduate program—if you’re enrolled, you’re a member with full access to all Embark Sustainability has to offer!
You can also gain hands-on experience in climate equity and food justice on a part-time or contract basis, or through per diem, facilitation and leadership roles. We have opportunities that fit your unique skill set or personal/professional development goals.
