Partnerships
Challenges are best tackled together. Our partnership experts connect industry, non-profits, government and communities in the interior of British Columbia with world-class researchers to help find transformative solutions to issues from a local to global scale.
UBC Okanagan opens up unique opportunities for using Kelowna and the surrounding BC Interior as a living laboratory to study everything from wildfire and sustainability to infrastructure and resilience—areas of research that are important the world over.
