Join us for Better Communities: A Social Innovation Workshop!

How do people experience and navigate their communities, and what can we learn by looking at accessibility through a systems thinking lens?

The Centre for Social Enterprise invites students to join us on October 21 for an interactive workshop exploring accessibility and inclusion in our communities.

Through a panel discussion and hands-on activity, students will hear different perspectives, identify barriers and existing supports, and explore how different parts of a community are interconnected. The workshop offers an opportunity to apply systems thinking, engage in discussion, and consider what makes communities more accessible and inclusive.

πŸ“… Date: October 21, 2026
πŸ•‘ Time: 2:00-4:30 p.m.
πŸ“ Location: Social Changemaker Space, BN-4015, Memorial University
β˜• Refreshments will be provided!

Registration closes October 19: https://luma.com/kkf5zpdn

Last week, we had the pleasure of welcoming a group of high school students from the Shad program (Shad Canada) into our space to learn about social enterprise and systems mapping.

They participated in our interactive "Better Communities" workshop where they created their own characters and imagined life through different perspectives. They identified challenges, opportunities, and ideas for building stronger communities.

It was inspiring to see the depth of thought, empathy, and creativity they brought to the challenge. The future is bright with young leaders like these helping to imagine and design better communities for all.

Thanks to Enactus Memorial for helping us facilitate the workshop! πŸ™Œ
