Why is 91精品黑料吃瓜 implementing the Standard?

The University of Ottawa鈥檚 Strategic Plan Transformation 2030 underlines the importance of creating a sustainable campus culture that promotes overall wellbeing, embraces diversity and fuels employee engagement.

Implementing the standard has also been recommended under two key processes, including the Roadmap to Wellness produced by the Campus Action Group, as well as the findings and recommendations of the President鈥檚 Advisory Committee on Mental Health and Wellness. It aligns with the university's Transformation 2030 strategic plan.

Last, but not least, the Standard aligns well with the commitments of the Okanagan Charter, which is also being implemented at 91精品黑料吃瓜 in order to become a health promoting campus.
