Coordination opportunities

Every flagged pairing keeps conflict risk and synergy potential separate, and explains the reasoning behind both.

Sukkot programming overlap

Sukkot BBQ · Sep 29DDO After Dark: Sukkah Vibes · Sep 29
Needs review

Why this was flagged

Same dateBoth programs run the evening of September 29, 2026.
Shared Sukkot themeTwo separate Sukkot celebrations within the same holiday week.
Audience overlap needs confirmationHillel serves students and young adults; West Island serves young adults and community members. The size of the shared segment has not been verified.

Mandate alignment

Aligns with Hillel's holiday-experience mandate and West Island's belonging and partnership goals. A joint Sukkot moment supports both without either team giving up its own audience.

Conflict risk62Moderate

Same date, same holiday and a shared young-adult segment mean the two events likely compete for the same attendees and for volunteer capacity. Travel between downtown and the West Island makes attending both unrealistic.

Synergy potential86High

A shared Sukkot theme, complementary venues and one combined promotion push could grow total reach instead of splitting it. A shuttle or staggered start would let young adults join both.

Education collaboration opportunity

Concordia Refuel – Sukkot · Sep 23Master Class · Sep 24
Needs review

Why this was flagged

Adjacent dateConcordia Refuel – Sukkot on September 23 sits one day before the Master Class on September 24.
Education and community overlapBoth programs build skills and connection for university-age participants.
Audience overlap needs confirmationUniversity students appear in both audiences, but the overlap has not been measured.

Mandate alignment

Strong fit with education, venture-building and next-generation leadership. Consider adding a mentorship follow-up.

Conflict risk34Low

Different dates and different formats mean attendance is unlikely to be split. The only real pressure is back-to-back demand on the same student promotion channels.

Synergy potential82High

A campus audience already gathered on September 23 is the natural feeder for entrepreneurship programming on September 24. One cross-promotion could serve both.

Sukkah week capacity check

DDO After Dark: Sukkah Vibes · Sep 29Hosting CBT Sukkah Hop · Sep 30
Needs review

Why this was flagged

Consecutive eveningsDDO After Dark on September 29 is followed by the CBT Sukkah Hop on September 30.
Same host teamBoth evenings draw on the same West Island volunteers and setup crew.
Complementary audiencesYoung adults one night, community households the next — a natural two-night arc.

Mandate alignment

Directly supports West Island's volunteerism and community-convening mandate; a shared crew plan protects the volunteers it depends on.

Conflict risk48Moderate

Back-to-back evenings put real strain on the same volunteers and equipment, and community households may only choose one night.

Synergy potential71High

Marketed as a two-night Sukkah week, the pairing gives households a reason to attend both and lets setup costs be shared across the evenings.

Security briefing timing review

Community Security Briefing · Sep 16Level-Up City · Sep 17
Needs review

Why this was flagged

Adjacent dateThe Community Security Briefing on September 16 sits the night before Level-Up City on September 17.
Shared parent audienceWest Island households with high-school-age children appear in both audiences.
Tone differenceA security briefing and a youth showcase need clearly separated messaging.

Mandate alignment

West Island's community-sustainability mandate and ProMontreal's next-generation leadership mandate both apply, but through separate programs rather than one shared event.

Conflict risk41Moderate

Parents pulled into a security briefing one evening are less likely to commit to a second evening out, and the two tones can clash in a single promotion week.

Synergy potential55Moderate

Some benefit in a shared parent communication, but the topics are different enough that a joint program is not recommended — coordinated timing is the realistic gain.
