When the Asian Canadian & Asian Migration Studies (ACAM) program was launched, it was part of UBC’s commitment to redressing its history of anti-Asian racism in the forced removal of 76 Japanese Canadian students in 1942. Now, for 10 years, ACAM has been fostering student wellness, building community, and supporting culturally relevant learning that transcends an undergraduate degree.
As an academic program, we strive to model a kind of care and openness that facilitates ongoing, collective reckoning around anti-racism and justice. We facilitate genuine and engaging conversations, respond to community issues and concerns, and cultivate future leaders.
The Asian Canadian and Asian Migration Studies Fund ensures that our students have access to meaningful programming, resources, and initiatives that amplify their unique voices and enrich their academic and personal journeys.
Your donation aids in expanding ACAM’s core offerings and supports impactful projects like ACAM Dialogues, ACAM Podcast, student care packages, field trips, and events that bring students together to learn, grow and connect.
Each and every contribution creates an opportunity to deepen cultural and historical understanding for a lifetime, fueling transformative learning and community engagement that in turn inspires and empowers students to change their world.
