Join us as we cheer on our MRU students, and learn more about a systems approach to social change. The top undergraduate student teams from across the MRU campus will provide a 10-minute presentation of their findings, followed by Q&A from judges. The top team will move on to compete at the Canada-wide final in May, with a chance to compete at the global finals at Oxford University in July.

The event will also feature a conversation about how systems thinking optimistically reveals opportunity with Andrea Klaiber-Langen, Vice President, Transformation at ATCO. Map the System is made possible through support from ATCO.

Global Opportunity

Map the System is a competition opportunity for MRU student changemakers to showcase their research, systems mapping and presentation skills on a global stage. The competition is hosted by the Skoll Centre for Social Entrepreneurship at the University of Oxford and has levels of competition at the local, national and international levels.

 

  

Systems Thinking

The program challenges students to demonstrate their understanding of a social or environmental issue by taking a systems-led approach. Students are not evaluated on their proposed solution, but rather their depth of understanding.

 

 

Supportive Environment

With support from the Institute for Community Prosperity, teams or individuals develop a final presentation highlighting their research, and one team will have an opportunity to compete at the Canadian final and, if selected, at the Global Final at the University of Oxford.
