For the period 2023-2027, the Faculty of Social Sciences is focused on building a sustainable system while upholding its motto: "To be socially engaged and solutions oriented."  One of our strategic imperatives is Empowerment of staff, and so we incorporated elements of fun to achieve the desired outcome at Christmas time!

The "Deckorate Your Department" Competition was the first initiative designed to encourage staff to express their creativity by decorating their respective spaces for points in the categories of originality, creativity, emotional appeal, and thematic interpretation under the theme "Trini Christmas is d Best!".
