We’re excited to announce that Humber is participating in the Map the System 2020 competition!
Map the System is a global competition that challenges us to think differently about social and environmental change. Rather than jumping straight into a solution, business plan or an idea to fix problems, Map the System asks us to use ‘systems thinking’ to understanding complex social and environmental challenges.
Humber is one of the first Canadian colleges to participate in Map the System.
We invite you to learn more on Wednesday, January 15 at 10:15 a.m. in room B216 (North Campus) and Friday, January 17 at 10:45 a.m. in G204 (Lakeshore Campus). The info session will last 45 minutes to one hour.
What happens in Map the System?
Students will:
- Develop systems level thinking
- Formulate ways to visually map a complex system
- Build research and presentation skills
- Forge new connections with innovators and changemakers
- Compete to be the winning Humber team that will travel to the Candian final in Montreal
- Compete to present at the University of Oxford and win cash prizes
Faculty can:
- Share information about the competition to interested students
- Embed the competition in a course you are teaching - join us!
- Support student groups who register as independent Humber teams
Student groups must register by February 5, 2020 at this link.
We look forward to seeing you! In the meantime, please be sure to check out the Map the System website.
