The Story Behind Our Environmental Club
UOSEA was created in 2020 by a group of individuals dedicated to sharing their passion with others. Based in Ottawa, we are an active and enthusiastic Environmental Club with events and activities taking place year-round. We like to keep up the energy and excitement, always welcoming new members to take part. Simply put, we love getting together to do what we love.
