Ten days of panels, workshops, film screenings, demonstrations and cultural events to raise awareness around the Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions (BDS) campaign against Israeli apartheid.

It’s NOW official, Trump is the 45th president of the United States (sigh… *anger*). We helped organize some amazing demonstrations with hundreds of people showing up to march against Trump, the far right, capitalism, and in solidarity with all whom these oppress.  High five to everyone!
Thank you for your support and your help organizing it! Although this battle is done, the war is far from over (insert dramatic sound effects). There is still work to do and we are calling for a meeting on Wednesday, February 1st, at 6:30pm (at 1500 de Maisonneuve West, #204, métro Guy-Concordia).

The QPIRG CONCORDIA VOTE YES committee would like to thank Concordia undergraduate students for supporting our referendum question during CSU elections (November 15-17, 2016). The referendum succeeded with nearly 70% support from students who voted! The increased funding for QPIRG Concordia, our first increase in almost a decade, will be crucial to continuing to support grassroots research and social & environmental justice on campus for another decade and more. We encourage our members to get involved with the different projects, initiatives, publications and working groups at QPIRG Concordia throughout the year. Thank you again to the progressive Concordia campus community!
