SFU is hosting a talk that will look into whether or not the cinematic experience tends to raise awareness of world suffering. This event explores the power of films to inspire people to take action on global issues.

Anil Narine will discuss this issue and related topics in eco-cinema in this free lecture, entitled “Can Movies Move Us to Take Action?,” at SFU Woodward’s on Oct 29, from 7 to 9 p.m.

All Campuses

From 9 a.m. to 7 p.m. on October 31, explore all three SFU campuses and learn how universities encourage vibrant, livable, and sustainable cities. Campus to City will look at the role of universities within city-building.

A tour bus will take participants from campus to campus and will have the opportunity to discuss sustainability, design for inclusivity, social finance, and First Nations perspectives. Registration for this event is free on Eventbrite.
