Who we are & what we do

Community is woven into everything we do at 51. Community engagement connects learning, research, and service with the communities we serve. Through meaningful partnerships, we bring together students, faculty, staff, alumni, Indigenous communities, organisations, and community members to learn from one another, address challenges, and create opportunities that benefit our region.

Grounded in collaboration, reciprocity, and shared purpose, community engagement extends learning beyond the classroom and brings university knowledge together with community expertise. Together, we're building stronger communities, supporting student success, and creating lasting impact across the Fraser Valley and beyond.
