We work with communities across Canada to create vibrant public places that help solve the most pressing issues cities face. Each project is a showcase of what’s possible. See our work below.
Evergreen is a national non-profit transforming public spaces in our cities to build a healthier future for people and our planet.
We know that our public spaces need a change and transforming them takes a community of action. We want you to be part of that community.
Sociologist, scholar and 2024 Evergreen Conference speaker Eric Klinenberg explains how investing in public spaces can solve our cities’ most pressing challenges.
