WUSC is not restricted to the Local Committee that you see at Trent University. It is actually a national organization within Canada. There are dozens of other active Local Committees at educational institutions around the nation which are involved in projects geared towards making the world a more equitable place to live in. WUSC, at the national level, works with many other humanitarian organizations to foster human development through education and training.
Although WUSC at Trent University is currently promoting ‘VOTE YES!’ for the levy increase during this week’s elections, we thought that you should at least be aware of what WUSC is capable of doing and is doing elsewhere. Check out the following video compilation to see for yourself. Become inspired to take action and contribute to changing the world through education.
