The land it is situated on has always been a place of learning for the Musqueam people, who for millennia have passed on their culture, history, and traditions from one generation to the next. It is common at UBC events to begin with an acknowledgment of Musqueam territory. Acknowledging territory is a way of honoring and showing respect to the Musqueam, who have long inhabited this land.

  • Institutional Accountability Plan and Report
    Institutional Accountability Plan and Report 2019/20 The University of British Columbia July 15, 2020 2 Letter from Board Chair and President Dear Minister, We are pleased to submit The University of British Columbia’s Institutional Accountability Plan and Report for 2019/20 to the Ministry of Advanced Education, Skills and Training. As we close this reporting year, Canada and countries across the globe are faced with an unprecedented pandemic that has impacted all aspects of life in British Columbia, tested the strength of our health care system and public institutions, and caused significant socio-economic impacts in our society. It has also brought out remarkable ingenuity, inexhaustible dedication and moving acts of kindness throughout the province. While we are still addressing the immediate impacts of the pandemic, many of the long-term effects are slowly becoming clear. These are pivotal moments in what will surely be a defining challenge of our time. On behalf of UBC community, we want to express our profound gratitude for the provincial government’s leadership through this crisis, for the science- based approach to policy, for drawing on the incredible talent we have in BC and for your ongoing efforts to support students and BC’s post-secondary system now and through to recovery. Since the onset of the pandemic, the university has been engaged in addressing the COVID-19 pandemic – both in mitigating risk to the university community and in working collaboratively toward solutions. In this short-time, UBC transitioned to online classes at UBC Vancouver, UBC Okanagan and UBC Robson Square followed by shifting final examinations online, moving Spring Graduation ceremonies to a virtual celebration, curtailing on-campus research activities, and shifting summer sessions online.
