Implementing the Indigenous Strategic Plan (ISP)

The Indigenous Strategic Initiatives (ISI) Fund supports implementation of the Indigenous Strategic Plan (ISP). Funds are available to support projects that advance UBC’s ISP across both the Vancouver and Okanagan campuses.

Across three years of funding, $8.0m was available for projects from faculty, staff and students seeking to advance the ISP at UBC. In 2024-2025, an estimated $1.2m is available to ISI Fund applicants.

The first iteration of the fund has concluded, with the full $8.0 million successfully allocated.
