What is Community Economic Development?

Community Economic Development explicitly combines social and economic development to increase community control, build self-reliance, restore ecological integrity and create meaningful employment. Community Economic Development builds the green economy by crafting solutions that simultaneously address the dual problem of ecological degradation and social inequality.

What is the Certificate Program for Community Economic Development?

The SFU Certificate Program for Community Economic Development is comprised of eight, intensive two-day courses for community leaders to explore, with peers, the models and methods for building sustainable, local, robust economies. Sustainable economies depend upon cross sector collaboration; learning is greatly enhanced by the cohort experience.
