40th Anniversary Speakers Series 

Over the upcoming months we will be hosting a number of speaker events to bring our community together to explore interesting and relevant social justice and international development topics. 
 
Dr. Astrid V. Pérez Piñán will be talking about colonialism in the international context by offering an overview of the current state of affairs in Puerto Rico, 8 months after hurricanes Maria and Irma.  She will contextualise the Island’s situation in terms of its relationship with the United States, and will open space for reflecting on some of the local actions of Puerto Ricans towards a decolonized future.
Date: Thursday, My 31st @ 6:30pm
Location: Center for Global Studies,
Sedgewick Building
Room C168
University of Victoria

*Please note that seating is limited to 20 spots, and seats will go to those who RSVP first. Email ndarnell@videa.ca to secure your spot!

It's not to late to join our Environmental Awareness Campaign!
We have now raised $660 for our environmental stewardship online fundraising event!! Do you have any previously loved items in good condition that you no longer use? Consider helping us trial this initiative by selling an item and donating the money to VIDEA's human rights and environmental programmes. This way you not only clear out unwanted items, but get a charitable tax receipt in the process - it's a win-win!! Check out our website for more details.
