The University Diversity and Equity Committee Sponsorship Fund is provided through the Office of Equity and Inclusive Communities and it supports events and initiatives that further the goals of equity, diversity, inclusion, anti-racism, accessibility, decolonization, and intersectional social justice at KPU.
We are inviting submissions on a rolling basis. All members of the KPU community (students, employees, affiliated groups) are encouraged to apply. The maximum amount of each award is $2,000. Actual award amounts will vary based on available funds; funding of full asks is not guaranteed. Applications may be submitted by the first of each month in which UDEC meets from September to June.
UDEC meetings take place monthly from September to June. Please see the meeting schedule here.
Please use the documents below to complete your application and find answers to most of your questions. Feel free to review the brief summaries of past initiatives that received funding below. If you need additional information, or to submit your completed application, email udec@kpu.ca.
