Workshops- We are currently in the process of planning workshops for the upcoming year, so if you have an interest that you'd like to share or anything that you would like to organize with the Women's Centre, stop by or send us an e-mail to let us know!

Collective Meetings- This fall we will continue to host regular collective meetings on a monthly basis, so anyone who is interested in making their voice heard please come and join us, whether you've been a part of the collective before or not.

The Women's Centre is run by a collective of self identified women students and community members. Collective meetings are based on Consensus. The Simon Fraser University Public Interest Research Group has a really great leaflet on Consensus, which can be found here under Consensus Decision Making.
