Stay tuned for more information about this year's Catalyst Experiences! In the past we have explored many different themes including racial justice, decolonization, the opioid epidemic, gender and sexual diversity, safety & relationships, climate change, and food security. In partnership with local community members & organizations, we facilitate hands-on learning experiences promoting social change.

Interested in leadership opportunities? Staff, faculty and graduate students can apply to be Team Leaders, and undergraduate and graduate students with relevant experience can apply to be Student Leaders. Catalyst Leaders are provided with extensive training in areas such as facilitation, critical reflection, student development, social justice, risk management, and logistics, and participate in signification pre-program preparation. These are excellent professional development opportunities!
