There is a certain taboo surrounded with entering a community and offering advise in the hope to improve a situation. This often creates a double standard, putting into question the motives of those providing the “help” and whether or not the “help” is useful or consented.

By initiating relationships with these communities, UBC is expanding their network and building a shared value in business. The world of business at this time is anything but local, with products and ideas constantly being shared on a global scale. By operating on a “two way street” the Arc Initiative not only shares UBC’s ideas and knowledge with the community they are partnering with, but also increases their own knowledge.
