Meet the 2025 recipients of UBC’s Community-University Engagement Support Fund

April 14, 2025

UBC Community Engagement, in collaboration with the Office of the Vice-President, Research and Innovation, is proud to announce the 2024-25 recipients of the Community-University Engagement Support (CUES) Fund.

This year, a total of $727,014 was awarded to 30 outstanding projects, with grants of up to $25,000 each. These partnerships—spanning urban, rural, and Indigenous communities across the province—are designed to support community-led initiatives while advancing collaborative research, teaching, and learning.

From supporting Indigenous-led resource stewardship to expanding health care access for refugees, this year’s CUES funded projects highlight the power of partnership. Across BC, UBC faculty, students, and staff are working alongside community partners to tackle urgent issues, like strengthening food security, protecting the environment, and advancing cultural resilience and social justice.
