The Future We Want: The Change We Need

You’ve helped shape our priorities and now it’s time to choose what you want for your future.

From November 2019 to August 2020 you helped us to understand your challenges and identify what matters most to you and your communities. We would like to thank you for all of your contributions to this first phase of Planning Vancouver Together, which we’ve summarized online and created a detailed Council report.

We have now launched Phase 2 of our public engagement to develop the Vancouver Plan.

The Future We Want: The Change We Need offers everyone the opportunity to explore the 10 Provisional Goals for the Vancouver Plan. The Goals reflect the 12,000 community perspectives we heard during the intense Listen and Learn Phase 1 of public engagement, such as increasing unaffordability, greater inequity, eroding trust in government, and many becoming anxious for future generations in Vancouver.

Throughout this second phase of engagement we will be working with you towards the critical choices we collectively need to make to achieve these Goals in the future.

There will be many opportunities to participate in the coming months. Start by sharing your thoughts on the Provisional Goals. As a thank you for your participation, you may wish to enter the $100 value prize draw at the end of the survey!

Starting on November 24^th, you will be able to facilitate a conversation about the future with your immediate household through our The Future We Want: Conversation Kits. Then on December 10^th, join us as we host an on-line dialogue series in partnership with Simon Fraser University focusing on the big challenges we face as a city and fresh ideas to tackle them.
