Who We Are
Our vision is that the Greater Victoria Region achieves social and ecological sustainability, with a high quality of life and a long life in good health for all its citizens, while reducing its ecological footprint to be equivalent to one planet’s worth of biocapacity.
Our Mission
Our mission is to establish and maintain community-wide conversations on One Planet living and a One Planet Region.
Our approach is reflected in our slogan: Discuss – Understand – Imagine – Design – Create’. If we don’t learn about our situation and discuss it with others, we cannot come to a collective understanding of our situation. Without that understanding, we cannot imagine both what might happen if we fail to take action and what better alternative future we could create. And if we can’t imagine it, we can neither design nor build it.
Our ultimate objective is to facilitate local cultural evolution to bring about a profound socio-cultural transformation that will make it possible for the Greater Victoria Region to achieve social and ecological sustainability, with a high quality of life and a long life in good health for all its citizens, while reducing its ecological footprint to be equivalent to one planet’s worth of biocapacity.
