Meet other Village activists from around Vancouver and the metropolitan area, hear about and start new projects. For VVers who are already active, and VVers who are interested in becoming more active.
We're going to be exploring current local food/urban ag, community currency, and other projects and how we can both strengthen and, when appropriate, replicate them elsewhere in Village. We'll hear about potential new projects - new ideas most welcome! Finally, we'll take a look at what's working (or not) in our neighbourhood villages.
Hosted by Kits Village this month.

Comment by Mia Kalef on February 25, 2012 at 7:26pm Hi Ross, thank you for including me. If I make it out that night it looks like I'm already committed to the Naomi Klein lecture. I hope it goes great. See you soon!

It looks like I'll be attending the Copley Commons open house, which is closer to home. cylia

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.

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.
