±«Óãtv Community Experience Committee
Cultivating inclusive and meaningful engagement
We convene the ±«Óãtv Community Experience Committee (DCEC) to unite community developers from across the university, supporting ±«Óãtv’s strategic goal of being a civic and community-engaged institution.
DCEC fosters meaningful discussions on accessibility, community relationships, and ±«Óãtv’s impact. It also supports engagement professionals by providing a space to collaborate, share resources, and strengthen a culture of community involvement.

Annual fall event
Fostering creativity and connection
A colourful mural designed by Mi’kmaw artist Tayla Fern Paul has been painted on the street with the help of residents as part of the Larch and Jennings Street Art project.
The project, led by residents of those streets, aims to bring together neighbours, students and the ±«Óãtv community to creatively promote community connections and mutual respect in the area.
Community member Carolyn Hsu described the project as a way to create "stronger connections help us all be in a better position to tackle the challenges and create a community based on mutual respect for our collective well-being.â€
