Regenesis @ York is a grassroots environmental and social justice organization that operates on both Keele and Glendon campuses. We focus on effecting real-world change through action projects and providing resources to those wishing to take individual or collective action.
At this time, we are looking to have a masters student conduct an IDS in the winter term on the currently being finalized York University Secondary Plan, which will guide the university's growth over the next 40 years. The supervisor for this is Prof Laura Taylor.
York University Secondary Plan Critical Analysis:
The York University Development Corporation (YUDC) has just finished the Secondary Plan Update for the Keele Campus. As we work with YUDC and Campus Services on multiple projects (farmers market/forest restoration/cycling project), and almost all our projects will be affected by the plan, we would like to have a masters student critically analyze the plan this term through the environmental and social justice lenses that we employ. We will then be able to give meaningful feedback as the plan that will determine York's development future over the next several decades is finalized.
