The Community Development and Social Planning (CDSP) component prepares students to work as planners in developed or developing countries with municipalities, governments at all levels, NGOs or consulting firms. This center of gravity familiarizes students with community education and social assistance approaches in the context of economic and physical development, which too easily marginalizes social concerns. For each planning and development project, we typically partner and advise the UBC community, including student government, faculty management, the University Neighbourhoods Association, and our neighbors off campus. These leadership groups and community representatives are also more closely involved in projects through common solutions to problems and, where appropriate, collaborate with us on community programmes. The Connect to Community Grant (C2C) offers UBC students and master`s students the opportunity to create and implement a useful project in partnership with a local non-profit community organization. The C2C Scholarship has been designed as an accessible introduction to the scholarship experience and aims to be a dynamic learning opportunity. It challenges students to learn from the beginning of the application to the end of the project without fear of failure. We encourage students and community partners to test new ideas. Applicants may apply for funding between $200 and $1500 for their proposed project, which must be completed within 4 months of receiving the funds.
