Opportunities
Join our Regional Advisory Table
Working together is a critical step in supporting children and their families across the north. We invite you to join us as part of our SEED Regional Advisory Table.
This Advisory Table provides a forum to prioritise and coordinate early years work across sectors, offer insight on key issues, and identify collaborators and partners for local research. This Table also serves as a collaborative space to examine how key initiatives may be spread across northern BC communities. We meet on a quarterly basis.
The Advisory Table membership is voluntary, and we aim for the composition to reflect a diversity of perspectives and expertise relating to early childhood across our region. We would be thrilled to have you join us to explore how we continue to move this work forward to support positive early childhood experiences in northern BC. Please email seed@unbc.ca if interested.
