Explore SFU's What's Next Strategy
Launched in 2022 after consulting with members of SFU’s communities, What's Next: The SFU Strategy considers the path ahead for the university. The What’s Next strategy highlights the powerful hopes and ideals the university embodies, and reinforces the fundamental importance of knowledge, discovery, and community.
This new strategy has identified that our institution exists to create, mobilize, and connect knowledge, learning, and community to foster deeper understanding and meaningful impact – exactly what SFU Public Square is designed to do. Our work has long intersected with the four What’s Next priorities that represent the university’s framework for action: Uphold Truth and Reconciliation, Engage in Global Challenges, Make a Difference for B.C., and Transform the SFU Experience. We look forward to continuing to support the university's strategic goals in the years to come.
We invite you to explore SFU Public Square’s programming according to the four priorities of SFU:
-
Uphold Truth and Reconciliation
As a place of education, SFU recognizes our responsibility to illuminate the truth of Indigenous people in Canada and around the world and to begin charting a path towards Reconciliation.
