Resilience is about understanding our changing world, and taking action to enhance the strength of our communities to cope with environmental, social and economic challenges. What does resilience mean for Commercial Drive?

Join SFU's Semester in Dialogue students, in partnership with the Commercial Drive Business Society, for a creative, action-oriented conversation about the future of this neighbourhood. This dialogue will provide a venue for residents, community groups and representatives of local businesses to share their ideas, and connect with other individuals and organizations to help translate them into action.
