Welcome to the Urban Communities Cohort!

INITIATIVES

Community Service Learning is a cornerstone of the Urban Communities Cohort and the Bachelor of Education Program at the University of Ottawa.

ART

Art is a means of communicating with the world, purely and emotionally. While we can understand culture through studying history, mathematics, and science, art allows us to experience a full range of feelings. Art brings us to the scene of peoples, their histories, their cultures, and their languages. It is saturated with affect as we are struck by what we see about people's lives, dreams and hopes in the pieces that they render on the canvas, on the screen, on the page. So when we look at these pieces, created by students in our Ottawa schools, we ask, "is this trying to teach me something about the world and my community?"
