UBC is embarking on a comprehensive land use planning process called Campus Vision 2050 that will shape how the Vancouver campus evolves over the next 30 years. Campus Vision 2050 will involve deep engagement with the campus community to understand how we can use the campus land to meet the diverse needs and aspirations of the university and its community, xʷməθkʷəy̓əm (Musqueam) and the region.
UBC Vancouver last updated its Land Use Plan over a decade ago. Since then, the core academic campus has grown, the daytime population has increased significantly and the number of residents living in our neighbourhoods has nearly doubled. At the same time, this growth has taken place in the context of broader systemic changes including anti-racism, Indigenous reconciliation, housing affordability, climate action and transportation connectivity.
