The Institute brings together economic actors from communities, governments, and markets to develop, refine, and expand place-based approaches. Through structured learning exchanges, virtual resource sharing, and in-person convenings, places across Canada will gain the knowledge they need to shape their own economic futures.
"Shorefast’s Community Economies Pilot was a ground-up approach to learning how community economies are organized, the challenges they share, and the common ways of collectively creating action to overcome barriers and rise to meet opportunities.”
