On Nov. 7, 17 people will gather for the first time as part of the聽缅北强奸 Advisory Council on Sustainability. Co-chaired by the Provost and Vice-Principal (Academic), Christopher Manfredi,聽and the Vice-Principal (Administration and Finance), Morty Yalovsky,聽the Council is mandated to make recommendations to position the University as a leading institution in North America on sustainability by contributing to the implementation and evolution of 缅北强奸鈥檚聽Sustainability Strategy, and related plans, policies, and performance indicators.

The Council will provide guidance on sustainability challenges at the University from both an academic and operations perspective and will report to the Principal. In addition to the two co-chairs, the Council is stewarded by the Director of the Office of Sustainability, Fran莽ois Miller, and will include two administrators, four senior academic leaders, two students, and six members-at-large with significant expertise in sustainability governance and policy. A full list of Council members can be found below.

鈥淪ustainability is a cross-cutting topic that requires a collaborative response from the university,鈥� said Yalovsky. 鈥淭hat is why one of the Council鈥檚 aims is to build partnerships within the campus community and with external organizations. Ultimately, we want to align the efforts of key units at the University to integrate sustainability into daily operations.鈥�

The Advisory Council will focus on the following tasks this year:

1. Provide strategic advice on potential actions that could be incorporated in 缅北强奸鈥檚 Climate & Sustainability Action Plan (2017-2020);
2. Leverage expertise and opportunities to increase the potential impact of the action plan;
3. Ensure that 缅北强奸 stakeholders were appropriately consulted;
4. Ensure alignment with other significant strategic planning initiatives.

Considering the commonality of the topics discussed at聽Open Forums on the Recommendations of the 2016 CAMSR Report on Divestment, the Advisory Council will also consider the final report written by Prof. Fr茅d茅ric Bachand on the outcomes of the Forums, which will be submitted at the end of October.

鈥淲e are at a critical juncture at 缅北强奸. Sustainability is a clear priority for members of our community and we intend to do more to reflect these values,鈥� said Manfredi. 鈥淭he Advisory Council can provide the expertise and inspiration to strengthen collaboration between disciplines to better address our most pressing socio-ecological challenges.鈥�

The creation of the Advisory Council fulfills a key commitment outlined in part one of 缅北强奸鈥檚 Vision 2020 Sustainability Strategy, which covered the 2014-2016 period. Now, the Council is mandated to contribute closely to the development of the part two of the Strategy, the聽2017-2020 Sustainability and Climate Action Plan.

鈥淎s members of the community are currently gathering to determine the next priority actions for 2017 to 2020, the Advisory Council can help bridge the divide between community aspirations and administrative commitments,鈥� said Miller. 鈥淭he fact that we are creating this Council will not solve all of our sustainability issues at 缅北强奸, but it is a significant step in the right direction.鈥�
