The Sustainability Community Breakfasts are a series of monthly breakfast
meetings. The original purpose of the breakfasts was to share information and
build awareness and momentum leading up to the World Urban Forum 3 (WUF3) in
June of 2006, promote communication around ancillary events, facilitate
networking and collaboration, and, to begin to weave together local, regional,
and national interests into an action oriented Greater Vancouver based
sustainability community.
Today, the breakfasts provide an ongoing
opportunity for network and partnership building while at the same time building
awareness and understanding of urban sustainability challenges, bringing
together individuals and organizations interested in the sustainability of the
region.
Each breakfast typically features one or more major
presentations, as well as updates on on-going projects. As interest in enhancing
the sustainability of our Region grows, more and more people in the private,
public, academic and not-for-profit sectors are working on
sustainability-related projects. The Sustainability Community Breakfasts provide
an opportunity for sustainability practitioners, and those interested in
sustainability, to network and keep abreast of the latest developments.
