From helping organize campus actions in solidarity with September’s global climate strike and land defenders at Mauna Kea, to escalating the fossil fuel divestment campaign at Victoria College and extending it to Trin, SMC, and the UofT administration as a whole, to contributing to the fight for a Green New Deal in the upcoming federal election, Leap UofT has an exciting year ahead of us! Join us at our weekly strategy meeting to get involved with planning events, actions, and outreach, and learning the basics of divestment organizing.

On September 20th and 27th, millions of people all around the world are walking out of their workplaces, classes and homes to demand an end to the age of fossil fuels. Meanwhile, UofT’s administration continues to be complicit in the climate crisis and in violence against Indigenous peoples, from its continued investment in the fossil fuel industry to its support for the Thirty Metre Telescope project threatening the sacred mountain Mauna Kea.
Join the UofT climate strike coalition at 11am on September 20th to bring the global climate strike action to the doorsteps of Simcoe Hall. From the fossil fuel industry driving pipelines through Indigenous territories, to the TMT project on Mauna Kea, to Ford’s cuts to education here in Ontario and the UofT admin’s own failure to address the campus mental health crisis, universities such as UofT are helping to perpetuate the crisis that makes our future unlivable. This week, students are pushing back!
Keep watching for updates as we publish our demands this week!
