Whether building community, building buildings, or building any kind of sustainable relationship …this is a participatory discussion for folks who wish to contribute to the development of a “Sustainability Mecca” in this local bio-region. Southern BC is becoming widely known as the Green Building capital and the south islands in particular have incredible innovation examples. With unique multi-featured green rezoning projects, conservation communities, sustainable food projects, LEED awarded buildings and neighbourhoods, and a wide example of ecological and green design….the community will come together to describe a number of examples and then to discuss how we might showcase this work in a more collective way. Possibilities include bringing together an international tour and developing a “Building As If People Mattered Conference” …..we each can be part of the process. The day includes a panel discussion with a wide variety of professionals who work on premier showcase projects locally.

Please bring your project work, literature, info booth, and consulting contact for sharing at this event.
