DALHOUSIE SIKH STUDENTS ASSOCIATION
Dal SSA is a student led group on campus which aims to create a welcoming and comfortable space for Sikhs and others on campus. Our society promotes spiritual well being and social connections, it also works hard to educate the broader university community about who we are and why we look the way we look. We also look to set up langar on campus, which is an integral part of the sikh faith (providing free food for everyone).
Our society works to support students who identify with the sikh faith and also bridge the gap between sikh students and the rest of the student community. Our members are actively involved in setting up events, coordinating with the local Gurudwara's for help with food, and advocating for Sikh rights (if need be).
The SSA is important because of the sense of belonging it gives students who identify as a Sikh, especially for those who may be far from home and are struggling to find cultural/religious belonging. It also plays a broader educational role where a misunderstood people get a platform now to be represented. Our society reflects Dalhousie’s commitment to diversity, inclusion, and student leadership.
