Help Us Re-imagine a sustainable Calgary

Sustainable Calgary is a lab for precedent-setting, community-led change in Calgary, guided by the 7 domains in our State of Our City reports.

From the in-depth research for each State of Our City indicator, to the groundbreaking ideas that spark our projects, our approach to change is from the ground up: led by communities, informed by citizen engagement, and supported by people like you!

From Indicators to Ideas to Actions

The Connaught Open Street is a powerful example of what happens when communities have the space and support to make change happen. It contributes to five of the seven State of Our City domains, addressing indicators ranging from Physical Activity and Mental Wellbeing to Active Transportation, Urban Biodiversity, Volunteerism, and a Stronger Sense of Belonging.

Seeds for future change

We aim to raise $8,000 to sustain our operations while prototyping two more projects like the Connaught Open Street.

This spring we are working on two more school streets, and planting the seeds for future projects, but to keep working with communities we need your help. With support, we can:

Support more communities to re-imagine their neighborhoods
Share what we learn
Make the case for city-wide investment in safe, healthy streets
