Event Description

Any member of the website can post an event. Our Event posting policy:

Village Vancouver community members are encouraged to use our Events page to post events that are relevant to our mission, which is to transition towards strong, low-carbon, resilient and complete communities. Village Vancouver reserves the right to remove any event postings that it does not feel sufficiently meets these criteria, and to suspend the membership of any person or organisation suspected of abusing the Events page for purely commercial purposes or for purposes not related to the principles and mission and of the Transition Town movement.

Some Good Stuff to know:

1) *Village Vancouver events, and other activities in which we're participating, are indicated with an *.

Members are encouraged to start New Transition Projects. Basically, a transition project is something which helps build things like community, sustainability, resiliency, and local self-reliance. Projects can bring neighbours or people with similar interests together,  to celebrate, create a lower carbon footprint, result in more food being grown in our neighbourhoods, increase economic security -- stuff like that!

If you'd like to discuss partnering with uson a workshop, event, activity, or project, please contact info@villagevancouver.ca. Don't be shy!

2) For activities longer than 7 days, also check Ongoing Courses/Events.

3) To view all listings: click on "view all" below the last event, or go directly to the Events page.

...And last, but not least: if your "event" isn't really an event, please consider posting it elsewhere. For instance, in a blog or forum, in the appropriate village or group or network, or in one of the areas under Resources (Answers, Buy/Sell/Share/Find, Ideas, Listings).

Transportation

If you have to leave your village, how will you get where you want to go? By car? Preferably not, both for your wallet and the earth’s sake. This category is for all discussions relating to how we all get around.

5 discussions

Housing

A human right? After food, most feel shelter is the most important necessity. A place of shelter is also the start of a community. This category is for all things relating to shelter, housing, affordable housing, homes, renewable heating systems, green buildings, heritage, and our built environment in general.
