Get involved

University of the Streets Café is a community-driven program that wouldn’t exist without the enthusiasm and involvement of many collaborators. We happily welcome new members to our community in different capacities each year.

If you would like to get more involved with our public conversation program, to suggest a topic, or to host one of our events please email the Program Coordinator at univcafe@concordia.ca

We would like to say a huge thank you to the people and organizations who have made University of the Streets possible since 2003!
