VIPIRG events

VIPIRG hosts a variety of educational events, including training workshops, film showings, community forums, and presentations by guest speakers on social and environmental justice issues. We also organize action-oriented events such as information pickets, rallies, demonstrations, street theatre, and work parties. All VIPIRG events are open to members and the general public.

Got an idea for an event?

Students and VIPIRG community members are encouraged to bring ideas for social/environmental justice events to VIPIRG. The VIPIRG coordinating collective considers event proposals year-round. Email outreach@vipirg.ca or call us at 472-5170 to discuss your idea.

Co-sponsorship of events

From its inception VIPIRG has worked with other campus and community groups to collectively organize events.
