The UBC Vancouver campus, situated on the traditional, ancestral and unceded territory of the Musqueam people, is home to a world-class, global university, residential neighbourhoods and a vibrant community in a growing region.
Campus Vision 2050 will ensure the future direction for the campus builds on what makes UBC a special place and enhances the livability, sociability and character of the campus within its unique context.
For millennia, Musqueam people have been the stewards and caretakers of these lands and have shared it with others, including UBC which has been located here for over 100 years. Through Campus Vision 2050, the university now has the opportunity to support meaningful, reciprocal and mutually beneficial partnerships with Musqueam, learning from Musqueam’s traditional relationship with the land.
As we look to the future, it’s time to create a vision and update the plans that guides how we use our land to meet the needs and aspirations of the university and its community while tackling timely, local, regional and global challenges. The final vision and plans will support the needs of the university and balance the multiple interests of the Indigenous host nation, campus communities, the broader region and its ecology.
