Celebrating Connections: A Recap of TGLL 2024 

What an incredible journey it has been! Over the past decade, TGLL has been fostering connections among BC undergraduate and graduate students, non-profit organizations, and local civil society groups with international reach. 

From engaging conversations to eye-opening insights, the event was a melting pot of diverse perspectives and innovative ideas. Participants had the opportunity to discover fresh perspectives, forge valuable connections, and gain invaluable insight into the non-profit sector from experts in the field.

Volunteers from KPU’s NGO and Non-Profit Studies program take charge at the registration desk.

 

Registration kicks off at 8am as participants and Table Captains stream in for the registration process and to fuel up at the breakfast buffet.
