Green Communities Canada

About Green Communities Canada :

« Sustainable and climate-ready communities are needed. We know this need is urgent. At Green Communities Canada (GCC), our work moves beyond the question ‘why’ and focuses on collaborative solutions to the challenge of ‘how’. 

GCC has been leading a community-based climate action movement since 1995, working together with non-profit organizations from across the country to advance transformative, equitable, and lasting change. 

 As a member-supported organization, our mission is to connect community-based climate action groups through a national network to share resources, co-create innovative programming, and elevate our collective impact.  

Fundamentally, we believe our model — which honours, mobilizes, and builds the knowledge and capacity found within communities — is and should be rooted in an environmental justice framework. We understand the climate crisis is also a crisis of inequity and disparity. Through our work we are committed to a path that is inclusive, humble, and contributes to reconciliation through action. »
