What is Study in Action?

The first annual two-day conference that aims to build ties between undergraduate students’ work on social justice themes and community organizations working on related issues.

The Conference is comprised of two days of panel discussions and workshops on themes of health, youth, colonialism, nation, race and racism, gender and sexuality, organizing, immigration and migration, environmentalism and more!

Study in Action seeks to foster ties between undergraduate students and the broader Montreal
community in order to strengthen the spirit of social justice, promote undergraduate research, and emphasize links between the two.

With a hope of energizing both communities in question, the conference also seeks to create concrete links between grassroots organizations and undergraduate work by providing research and a volunteer base for community organizations to call on.

The conference is free and childcare will be available with 24 hours notice. Vegan breakfast and lunch will be served on both days and bus tickets will be available.

Wheelchair accessible.
