Dr. Simon K. Y. Lee Global Lounge and Resource Centre
How to get involved?
The Global Lounge has significantly impacted my role as a leader on campus. I met some of the most involved students on campus who value global issues as much as I do. The space fostered the growth of a global community, and I would recommend the Global Lounge as the place to get involved with if someone is interested in working on global issues from UBC. - Kait, Caribbean African Association and Marine Drive Residence Life
Whether it's finding a venue, reaching a contact, or learning about avenues for funding, I've known the Lounge to respond to my inquiries with flexibility, openness, and a sincere interest in making things possible. It's important to feel as though your university is interested in investing in your potential - the Lounge is one way in which this is manifest. And of course, I am eternally grateful for the countless cups of coffee that are readily available and increase my appreciation for events, conversations, and life in general! - Tarini, WUSC
The Global Lounge sounds like a place I’d be interested in connecting with, but where do I start? I really want to get involved on campus, but I have no idea which club to join, which position I should hold, or what interests me the most!!!
If you feel this way, the staff and student-volunteers at the Global Lounge & Resource Centre can help you get involved with one with our 29 network members!

"The Global Lounge has become much more than a Resource Centre for me. This year I was lucky enough to work with two student organizations that use the Global Lounge as their home. Throughout the year, the Global Lounge became a place where I not only had meetings and events, but also met inspiring and proactive students, where people from different areas of the UBC community came together to discuss and create. It was a wonderful experience and I enjoyed every bit of it - from the late nights studying to the UBC-wide events that were born from collaborations with people I met there."
