The Burnaby Community Assembly is a broadly representative group of 40 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 met 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 Swwú7mesh speaking peoples. We are grateful for the opportunity to be on this territory.

WHY DID WE DO THIS?

To seek the perspectives of residents who broadly reflect the diversity of the Burnaby community.
