Please tell us which areas of Transition interest you. For example: growing more food/urban agriculture, relocalizing our economy/local currency, Permaculture, transit, energy efficient buildings, the arts, urban homesteading, preserving seed diversity, placemaking, potlucks, outreach, organizing events, community-building, having fun while saving the world, or...

Sharing activities, organizing events, community-building, having fun while saving the world.

There's a saying that "Transition is not a spectator sport". It's true! Village Vancouver runs on people power, and engaging in activities and projects together helps us accomplish more. Which groups, networks, neighbourhood villages, or projects do you think you might be interested in getting involved with? And what knowledge, skills, resources or other assets can you bring to the mix? (Don't be bashful!)

Sharing economy initiatives, food networking, block parties, community action. I enjoy working with people and coordinating projects (I have a background in journalism and communications).

What would you like to see improved in Vancouver or in your community regarding sustainability or resiliency? Do you have an idea for a new Transition project or activity?

We should address the affordability crisis and also social isolation problems in Vancouver. I believe we need to make Vancouver a more affordable place to live (and probably sharing and communal initiatives can be part of the solution) and also we need to develop stronger and more meaningful community bonds.

I agree to read and abide by the Site Guidelines under the About tab on the navigation bar, remaining respectful in all communications on this web site.

Don't feel like answering all the questions now? No worries, just tell us briefly why you're interested in joining at this time, and you can come back and update your profile later.

I am pursuing research about sharing economy initiatives in Vancouver, and we believe Village Vancouver does a great job in this regard!
