Colleges and Universities Committee

Supporting post-secondary locals to work together strategically

The Committee supports college and university locals in the province to coordinate strategically on such common issues as bargaining, pay equity, fighting privatization, and advocating for more public funding to post-secondary education.

The Committee works to strengthen CUPE’s role in the sector by recommending campaigns, government relations, and member engagement to build a more affordable and accessible system of high quality public post-secondary education for everyone.
