Mission of UNI Community
Each day, the institution supports and finances projects that contribute to the well-being of New Brunswickers rather than shareholder profits elsewhere.
To make this vision a reality, UNI established a citizen cooperative consisting of 3 regional committees and 36 representatives, real agents of change. They are the ones who set our cooperative dis apart from other institutions each day.
They are responsible for meeting the needs of communities and rallying those who create social, economic, environmental and cultural value for the exclusive benefit of New Brunswick’s citizens and business communities.
