Community building, the arts, energy efficiency, and of course 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!)

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?

Networks of support - where people are trying to make the transition from the old paradigm/patterns into a new more sustainable way of being. A lot of people just don;t know how to change their ways, and some of our beloved communities are perceived to a particular steroetypical "hippy culture" which can be put people off. Would like to see a medium type culture merge that allows for people to see we are all just people trying to the do the best we can for our environment. You don't need to be vegan-vegetarian hemp wearing person to live sustainably...

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 saw a wonderful lady (sorry can't remember her name!) from VV, speak at the Evolver CoLab early this month. I briefly spoke with her afterwards and mentioned I really felt called to work with this group. I have been seeking to volunteer for a while - just looking for the right fit. VV felt like it was in resonance with where I am at right now.
