Assiniboine Community College, the Assiniboine Students’ Association (ASA), and Fanshawe College are the latest members of the Canadian postsecondary sector to sign the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) Accord. With this agreement, the signatories have committed to embedding the SDGs into their education, research, leadership, operations, administration, and engagement activities. “With our lens on student success and belonging, we’re inspired by the SDGs and committed to these goals being a guide to what we do, in supporting students and in partnership with the college,” said ASA Executive Director Amanda Mann. Additionally, Fanshawe has implemented a sustainability action plan that aligns with the SDGs, which includes measurable targets focusing on quality education, gender equality, and reducing inequality.
