You have just the interests we need. I learned long ago that sustainability is based on community self-determination and the capacity to make rational, long-term decisions. This is no mean feat, and where I believe Vancouver fails the test most egregiously. We will have to explore this together sometime. We'll need a real strong team and some keen societal understanding to rebuild local resilience with properly distributed governance.

Welcome to Village Vancouver, Erica.

You already live in a neighbourhood known as a hotbed of grass-roots activism. As you can perhaps tell, this web site is a new endeavour for VV, and we hope it will be a platform to extend our reach and focus more clearly on our work, especially as we tackle Transition.

We do not yet have a Transition initiative/neighbourhood team in Grandview, albeit we would co-opt GWAC in a minute if we could. Meanwhile, check out our burgeoning list of working groups (most not yet with explicit terms of reference) or our many Forums.

We are trying to develop a space where people can share or learn widely, and make more personal connections locally. However, we do not want to overwhelm anyone with email or too much information. You can turn off any notice feature of this website, or leave it such that you receive email when people post to forums or sub-groups in which you are active.

We hope to see you involved in your neighbourhood and/or with us in our city-wide activities.

Are you involved in the wine industry?
