BURNABY COMMUNITY ASSEMBLY
Lend your voice to this once in a generation opportunity to shape Burnaby’s future through the Burnaby Community Assembly!
The Burnaby Community Assembly is a representative group of 45 Burnaby residents, selected through a civic lottery, who will help shape Burnaby’s Official Community Plan. Over the course of six months, the Burnaby Community Assembly will meet to learn, hear from experts and community voices, work through trade-offs and create recommendations for Burnaby’s new Official Community Plan.

The SFU Morris J. Wosk Centre for Dialogue respectfully acknowledges that Burnaby is located on the ancestral and unceded homelands of the hən̓q̓əmin̓əm̓ and Sḵwx̱wú7mesh speaking peoples. We are grateful for the opportunity to be on this territory.
WHY ARE WE DOING THIS?
To seek the perspectives of residents who broadly reflect the diversity of the Burnaby community.
To produce actionable recommendations for formal response by Burnaby City Council.
To create opportunities for in-depth learning and dialogue.
HOW IT WORKS
This engagement process is organized by the SFU Morris J. Wosk Centre for Dialogue, with arm's length contributions from the City of Burnaby. The Assembly will be conducted in five phases, with participants selected via civic lottery in February 2024 and recommendations finalized for Council by June 2024.
