CUI x Local
CUI x Local
CUI is going on the road! CUI x Local is a series of week-long virtual residencies to learn about local issues facing cities and connect the dots across urban Canada. We’ll be listening to and learning from local stakeholders about their most pressing challenges and surfacing examples of innovative and locally driven solutions.
About
CUI x Local is a virtual listening tour to gather interpretations, data, assessments, priorities, bright spots and stories from on-the-ground voices to help deepen our collective understanding of the interconnected and interdependent issues facing urban Canada.
Alongside local partners, we are organizing week-long residencies involving a combination of public and invitation-only meetings and activities.
By looking at local issues and connecting them nationally, CUI x Local will strengthen the connective tissue within and across communities from coast to coast to coast.
