The Sustainability Projects Fund (SPF) is looking for two (2) new SSMU representatives to sit on its Working Group (WG). The mandate of the WG is to independently ensure the optimal achievement of the SPF mandate, with the support of the SPF Steward and the SPF Administrator. The eight voting members of the WG do so by deliberating constructively based on the SPF mandate and on the SPF Evaluation Criteria and by taking consensus-based decisions on 1) the funding of prospective and ongoing SPF projects as well as on 2) the Governance & Administration of the SPF.
Each representative is selected based on: their level of engagement within McGill University; their understanding of sustainability as a whole and within the McGill community; the complementarity of their expertise in relation to the other WG members; and, their commitment to respecting the SPF WG Terms of Reference.
Sitting on the SPF WG is a great opportunity for meeting with a diversity of people, discovering what animates the McGill community in terms of sustainability, and for participating into systems thinking and good governance in a welcoming and fun environment. Interested SSMU members should apply here by Sunday, May 29, 2016. Selected applicants will be contacted with details for an interview in the first half of June 2016. If you have any questions, feel free to direct them to uasecgen@ssmu.mcgill.ca.
