DESCRIPTION:\nJoin us for our seven-part Sustainability Series. We believe that Southern Georgian Bay can meet today’s needs of the planet, its people, and economic vitality…without compromising the needs of future generations.\nPart Three – Building the Next Economy\nApril 14, 2021, 4:30-6:00pm\nMany communities are facing the same issues and lots of people are talking about redesigning our economies to meet sustainable development goals. Now more than ever we need to work together to build our local economies for a resilient, sustainable, and equitable future.\nLet’s imagine a regional economy framework inspired by leaders in the field, case studies, tools, and strategies, which will help Southern Georgian Bay build healthier communities.\nLearn more, participate in breakout sessions, and help design our next economy.\nWhat do you want the next economy to look like?\nSpeakers will share their “Why, What, and How” real world experiences and best practices for the Next Economy:\nTonya Surman, CEO and Founder, Centre of Social Innovation\nToby A.A. Heaps, CEO and Co-Founder, Corporate Knights\nParticipant break-out sessions will explore emerging economies including:\n\nNext economy\nGreen Economy\nKnowledge Economy\nArts Economy\nInnovation and Entrepreneurship\n\n—\n7-part online discussion series launching Wednesday, February 10 through November, 2021\nWe believe that Southern Georgian Bay can meet today’s needs of the planet, its people, and economic vitality…without compromising the needs of future generations.\nThe fragmented and siloed practices of the past will no longer suffice for today’s world.\nIt is evident, and accentuated with COVID-19, that change is constant and it is happening at a frenetic pace.\nThe Sustainability series is being implemented to ignite a regional sustainability vision, and facilitate the development of a guiding roadmap towards a more resilient, inclusive, safe, and sustainable Southern Georgian Bay.\nTaking a regional and holistic approach, we will inspire and collaborate with community members to enable sustainable change in the region. This initiative will both create awareness of, and generate discussion about, what makes a vibrant sustainable community, as well as encourage citizens to learn more about their community and “become the change they want to see” via three key streams:\nRegional speaker series\nLearn from leaders across the province who are successfully integrating sustainable development initiatives into their respective communities. Participate in the community discussion.\nA community of practice\nBring together individuals, from all sectors, for knowledge sharing, collaboration and driving lasting change in the region.\nTransparent feedback loops\nEnable the community to have more coordinated, collaborative, open and transparent communications to drive greater change, continuous improvement and adapt accordingly.\n \nWhile a comprehensive understanding of community-based sustainability strategies is important, local action and measurable progress of sustainability are the long-term goals of this initiative. As such, key outcomes of this series will include the development of an action-oriented initiative roadmap to address current Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) related gaps in the region:\n\nMapping out sources of capital for key demonstration projects;\nCapabilities to measure and track Regional progress; and,\nSuccessfully develop and deliver SDG-focused projects beginning in 2021.\n\nWe are excited to help YOU envision a path forward to drive sustainable development in the Region. Let’s get to work!\n“The greatest threat to our planet is the belief that someone else will save it.” – Robert Swan\n\n\n
