The Sun Will Come Out Tomorrow:

How Can We Empower Youth To Shape Our Communities

Thursday, November 20 | 12:00 p.m. ET | Live Zoom Webinar

There are over 8 million Canadians under the age of 19. These young people are a core part of our communities, sharing in our collective future. Yet there are few opportunities for children and youth to learn the skills they need to practice positive civic engagement.


Join us for this week’s CityTalk where Mary Rowe sits with a panel of changemakers working with young people to shape their communities and include them in civic conversations as we grapple with issues like the future of housing, mobility, economic opportunity, and sustainability.


We will discuss why it is so critical to include younger voices in decision-making, how to give them the tools and knowledge they need to lead, and what role institutions and municipalities have in engaging these young leaders.


Three of this week's panellists will represent finalist projects from the CUI and School of Cities National Call For Transformative Local Solutions. The winners will be revealed at the State of Canada's Cities Summit. Click here to get your ticket before they run out!

This December, the State of Canada's Cities Summit is bringing together hundreds of leaders and practitioners working to make their communities more resilient, equitable, vibrant, and prosperous.

This year’s theme, Better Places for a Better Canada: Leveraging the Local will spotlight what’s working—the local innovations, frameworks, and policies that are already making a difference—and identify opportunities to scale.
