Student Committee | Toronto Human Rights Watch Film Festival
 
Student committees from four Toronto post-secondary institutions — Ryerson, York University, The University of Toronto and Humber College — are working with organizers of the Toronto Human Rights Watch Film Festival to increase student participation in this year’s festival.
 
The student committees will be selling reduced-rate tickets on campus and spreading the word about the festival both in-person and online.
 
The Student Outreach Program was initiated in the fall of 2007 by the Canada Film Festival Subcommittee as a way to create awareness around important human rights issues. The committee began working initially with professors and student volunteers from the University of Toronto, York University and Humber College.  In 2009, an active Ryerson University Committee joined the list of participating institutions.
 
This year’s Student Committee members include: Leah Wong and Jasmine Holmes (Ryerson University),  Amira Mohamed (York University), Vanessa Richards and Amy Rynsoever (Humber College) and Emile Wickham (York University) (pictured left to right in the photo above).
 
To volunteer for a Student Committee or to learn more about the Student Outreach Program please contact: Karin Lippert at karin.lippert76@gmail.com or phone 416-923-4707.
