Sheridan participates in SDG Week Canada

Sheridan actively participated in SDG Week Canada, a nationwide campaign that aimed to promote awareness and engagement with the 17 United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) through education. From March 6-10, Sheridan’s SDG Committee organized a diverse range of events across all three campuses, including an Artful Change Showcase, Mission Zero Freeuse Pop Up Shop, Repair Café + Tech Collect event, Art Hive, Zine Zone, virtual SDG-themed Scavenger Hunt, and Materials ConneXion Library exhibit. These activities garnered participation from over 550 members of the Sheridan community throughout the week.

Sheridan’s SDG Week Canada programming aimed to raise awareness about the SDGs as a framework for addressing pressing social, economic, cultural, and environmental challenges, and encouraged participants to become changemakers in their communities. The overwhelmingly positive feedback from students and faculty alike reflected Sheridan’s commitment to playing a pivotal role in creating a more equitable and sustainable world. The institution’s efforts to advance the UN SDGs can be explored further on our website.
