This Community of Practice (CoP) is open to those who have experience teaching on the Land, as well as those who have no experience but are curious about how to engage the Humber Arboretum and other outdoor environments as living labs.

Please join us to discuss ways to intentionally engage learners in respectful, reciprocal, and responsible relationships with the Land and All Our Relations at both the North and Lakeshore campuses. This CoP will be online, with one or two visits to the Humber Arboretum or the Lakeshore Grounds each semester.

Our first meeting will be on Friday, December 1 from 12:30 from 1:30 p.m. via Teams.

If you have any questions, please contact Jennifer Ball (jennifer.ball@humber.ca) and/or Maya-Rose Simon (maya-rose.simon@humber.ca).
