Supporting Student Leaders to Create Change

The University of Toronto deeply values its relationship with student leaders in its governance processes. In partnership with the Office of the Vice Provost Students (OVPS), the Innovation Hub seeks to better understand the needs of student leaders in executive positions. The university’s Governing Council formally recognizes five primary representative student bodies, collectively representing all U of T students: Association of Part-Time Undergraduate Students; Scarborough Campus Students’ Union; University of Toronto Graduate Students’ Union; University of Toronto Mississauga Students’ Union; University of Toronto Students’ Union. There are also numerous student societies within programs and departments, colleges, residences and other areas that drive change at the university. The relationship between the university and student leaders ensures that topics that matter to the tri-campus student body are discussed and addressed. This project will explore how the university community can best support student leaders to build momentum to create positive change on campus.
