<em>Metro 2040: Shaping our Futu</em>re, the regional growth strategy. Metro 2040 is the regional federation’s collective plan for managing growth in the region – including containing and focusing growth, and protecting important lands like greenspaces and employment lands. This update to the regional growth strategy, referred to as<em> Metro 2050</em>, will make it more effective and resilient to change. It will also do more to consider social equity and climate change in our communities, the impacts of growth policies, and how to better protect the places we care about.</p><p>Join us at one, or all four, Dialogues to hear about the update, ask questions, and share your perspectives to help us plan the future of the region. We will provide an overview of
<em>Metro 2050 </em>and focus discussion on different elements of the strategy at each location, while maintaining a full regional perspective. To get a jump-start on learning about
<em>Metro 2050</em>,
