We are looking for the input of our students, staff, faculty and community to better understand what they like about the outdoor spaces at Humber and how we can help them better connect to nature. 

In response to the climate crisis and rapid biodiversity loss, Humber Polytechnic has embarked on developing a healthy landscape management plan. From a two-eyed seeing approach, we are creating a strategy centred on nature-based climate solutions, native species planting, and the integration of Indigenous ways of being, knowing and doing. 

Our brief survey should take no longer than 5-7 minutes to complete. Please find the link here: Start Survey.

Survey responses will be collected anonymously. After submitting your responses to this survey, you will have the opportunity to submit your name and email, entering into a draw for a $50 Mastercard gift card. 

To the Humber Community,

The College Employer Council has posted "Ontario College Strike Action is Completely Unnecessary" on its site. 

The College Employer Council (CEC) is the government mandated bargaining agent for the 24 Ontario publicly funded Colleges that negotiate collective agreements with unionized staff. The following information is being distributed on behalf of the CEC.

The Faculty of Liberal Arts and Sciences is pleased to announce that the FLAS Grab 'n Go Food Bank will reopen at the North Campus for the Winter 2025 term beginning on January 9, 2025.

For January, food will be available on:

• Thursday, January 9

• Tuesday, January 28

How does the Food Bank work?

1. Members of the Humber community who are experiencing food insecurity or hardship are encouraged to stop by the FLAS Office during business hours on the dates listed above.
2. There they will encounter a cart with a selection of non-perishable food items.
3. They can take what they need. It's that easy!

Can I help?

The FLAS Grab 'n Go Food Bank is a faculty-driven initiative intended to help fight food insecurity in our Humber community. If you would like to contribute, food donations are always welcome and appreciated. All donations can be dropped off at the Faculty of Liberal Arts and Sciences.

Together, let's help fight food insecurity and ensure all members of our Humber community have access to food.
