What is the SSA Program?
The Sustainability Student Ambassador program provides leadership experience for Langara students interested in engaging the community in sustainable practices to create major contributions to social development and environmental protection.
Ambassadors will receive training and have the opportunity to envision, develop, and execute projects related to sustainability. The Sustainability Student Ambassadors raise awareness about ecological issues, encourage environmentally responsible behaviour in the community, and plan sustainability-related events and activities.
