About

Transition Cowichan is a volunteer initiative working to empower our community to build resilience in response to the challenges of global warming and the impacts of accelerating climate change, peak oil, and global economic instability.

With a focus on community building, Transition Cowichan hopes to inspire and support ordinary citizens in working collectively to make our Cowichan communities healthy, sustainable places to work, play, and raise future generations. This initiative will ultimately be shaped by all who are able to participate, in whatever way they can.

We seek to bring together those in our community who are already working on local resilience and self-sufficiency in food, water, energy and other matters vital to healthy communities. We also seek, new models for community transformation which will help us reach our goal of community resilience and sustainability.
