Village Vancouver

Vancouver's Leader in Transition toward Strong, Resilient, Complete Communities

In the July/August issue of Briarpatch Magazine, I was featured as one of the contributors explaining how the Trasition Initiative is one solution. The article outlines lots of other cool community initiatives taking place elsewhere. The link to the archived article is below :)

Dalia,
This is a great article, with many wonderful ideas spelled out in a positive and pragmatic manner. My only criticism is that your discussion of Transition did not appear first, as an umbrella for all the rest, but it was a superb article lead-out.

Thank you both for contributing such a key element to this article and for sharing it with us.
Randy
