About VIPIRG

The Vancouver Island Public Interest Research Group (VIPIRG) is a non-profit organization dedicated to research, education, advocacy, and other action in the public interest. VIPIRG has been operating since 1983, when UVic students voted to join BC PIRG.

Our priority areas include student engagement, poverty, homelessness, and decolonization.
