Renewable Cities

Renewable Cities uses dialogue and systems thinking to convene groups and build capacity to co-create practical solutions that address interconnected challenges across B.C. They work to catalyze the transition to equitable, livable and resilient communities.  

Their expertise lies in facilitating evidence-informed dialogue, bringing together a range of actors from across sectors and industry to work on shared challenges. As convenors, Renewable Cities understands the power of dialogue lies in our collective ability to observe and understand the system, make sense of it and develop coherent next steps to address shared challenges. This approach to gathering creates a space to think, reflect, share, connect, learn and problem solve together. Its mission is to work with policymakers and practitioners to accelerate the transition to renewable, restorative, resilient cities through meaningful engagement, critical research, capacity building and policy innovation. Using research-based dialogue, collaboration, and thought leadership, Renewable Cities works towards urban energy solutions with cities, governments, the private sector, utilities, researchers, and civil society.
