Distinguished colleagues, family and friends, graduands:
One year ago today, we lost a giant. Our Chancellor Emeritus, Murray Sinclair Mazina Gheezik-iban, began his journey to the spirit world in the early hours of November 4th, 2024. We are so grateful for his life, for his legacy of great change in the hearts and minds of Canadians, his passion for truth everywhere, including Queen’s.

Online via Google MeetQueen’s is taking part in Towards Zero Hunger: A Global Dialogue, a webinar series organized by the International Association of Universities (IAU) Zero Hunger Cluster. The series highlights innovative practices that help end hunger, improve nutrition, and promote sustainable agriculture in alignment with UN SDG 2. The next session, PEACH Market – Providing Equal Access, Changing Hunger, takes place on October 30 and will be led by Theresa Couto, Registered Dietitian and Wellness and Sustainability Manager in Housing and Ancillary Services, Student Affairs.
PEACH is a ‘pay-what-you-can’ market program that launched on Queen's campus in September 2022. It aims to create an inclusive space for students that provides dignified and equitable access to nutritious food and removes the stigma around food insecurity. It is a shared initiative between Student Affairs and the Alma Mater Society, complementing other food access programs on campus to support students, staff, and faculty, such as the AMS Food Bank, Swipe it Forward, and Fresh Food Boxes.
Queen’s is a member of the IAU. Member universities are from all parts of the world, working in collaboration to develop existing and new exciting initiatives to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
