The Challenge

To support Canadian municipalities in becoming more sustainable.

Our Approach

Cullbridge has supported FCM's Sustainable Communities group since its inception, with such projects as:

•  Developed, with funding from Health Canada, Transport Canada and Environment Canada, a ‘how to’ guide for municipalities on implementing active, sustainable transportation programs.

• Helped manage a three-year joint FCM-Health Canada project that supported member municipalities in piloting new approaches for fostering active transportation. Developed associated capacity-building resources and promoted them to members.

• Developed a resource guide of programs that can assist municipalities with the education and outreach aspects of their CO2 reduction efforts.  Part of FCM’s Sustainable Communities Toolkit Binder.

• Researched, selected and wrote a behavior change case study on Greater Vancouver’s transportation demand management (TDM) program.

• Wrote case studies for the CMH2M Hill – FCM Sustainable Communities Awards.

• Helped plan and conduct user testing for the FCM’s Knowledge Network Web site.
