Abundance: challenging narratives of scarcity around environmental crises through shared joy, resources, and community

May 2, 2023 – May 4, 2023Thank you for joining the UO Student Sustainability Center, the Coalition Against Environmental Racism, and our other co-sponsors for Abundance: challenging narratives of scarcity around environmental crises through shared joy, resources, and community. This series of events, happening across multiple days, will feature educational talks, workshops, and volunteer opportunities for students and other UO community members to engage with the idea of abundance. The climate crises and other intersecting issues, such as environmental racism, can make us feel disconnected and hopeless. We believe that one of the most corrective actions we can take in this work is to challenge that narrative. We are all that we need, and we have everything we need! Join us as we explore the abundance of our very own community, and beyond!

May 23, 2023Join us for a thought-provoking and informative lecture series on the ongoing crisis of missing and murdered Indigenous People. This event is aimed at educating our community about this issue, raising awareness, and promoting action towards justice and change.

Through these lectures, we aim to shed light on the devastating effects of this crisis on Indigenous communities and to explore the root causes behind it.
The series will cover various aspects of the issue, including the historical and cultural context, the impact of colonization and systemic racism, the challenges faced by Indigenous people, and the importance of community action and advocacy. The lectures will also highlight the stories of missing and murdered Indigenous people and their families, and honor their lives and memories.
Throughout the series, attendees will have the opportunity to engage in dialogue and discussion with the speakers, ask questions, and share their own perspectives and experiences. We hope that this event will inspire and empower our community to take action towards justice and healing for Indigenous people and their families.Join us for this important and impactful event, and let’s work together to remember our sisters and demand change for a better future.
