The Women’s Resource Center (WRC) opened on the UBC Okanagan campus in 2003 and continues to provide services to students through the SUO. All services offered by the WRC are paraprofessionals, however, the WRC provides a safe place on campus for women and those who identify as female, to come to find a supportive environment and connections to other resources on and off-campus. The WRC annually initiates many events, campaigns, and fundraisers all in an effort to better the lives of women primarily on campus, while maintaining connections to the local, national and international scale.

ABS is an association for Bangladeshi students at UBCO. Our mother tongue is Bengali or Bangla. We are the nation who sacrificed their lives to fight for our language on 21 February 1952 which later was declared as the International Mother Language Day. We plan to take an initiative where we will sit weekly on Saturdays and nurture our Bangla language skills and culture. We would like this event to be open to all who are interested to learn our sweet mother tongue Bangla. We would also like to extend this program for the Bangladeshi community in the Okanagan region. If anyone wants to learn the Bengali language, they can join the classes. It will be open for the kids of our future generation as well. We also plan to teach our students our national anthem and some traditional songs.
