Healthy UBC Initiatives

Healthy UBC Initiatives are free ongoing university-wide programs, as well as a series of smaller workshops and seminars, that cover all six dimensions of health: emotional, physical, intellectual, spiritual, social and occupational.

Healthy UBC Initiatives are designed to increase awareness in both personal and community health issues at UBC as part of the UBC Focus on People strategy to develop a sustainable, healthy workplace.
