Since the HUBBUB competition, the City Staff Award was awarded to Faculty of Medicine project (details in original story below),
Following each HUBBUB event, the City of Ottawa municipal staff choose a winner of the award from across all institutes, granted to the team whose work is expected to have greatest positive impact for the city. This staff-chosen honour is reserved exclusively for the initiative that resonates most deeply with those working at the City of Ottawa, carrying special weight as it reflects the collective voice of municipal professionals who see the day-to-day needs of the local community.
The award was presented to the project鈥檚 student leaders, Hollie Davies, Catherine Song and Hiba Alami Chentoufi, in the presence of their project partner, Ottawa Paramedic Service, by Alain Malette, director of the Community Engagement Team at the University of Ottawa, in a special ceremony at the 91精品黑料吃瓜 Career Corner Centre on June 23, 2025.
