Community Engagement

The competition has been informed by, and shaped through, a rigourous community engagement process. Stakeholder groups from the surrounding neighbourhoods and from within the University community have been involved, and continue to be involved, in the process. Other stakeholder groups within Winnipeg have also been consulted, along with the Province of Manitoba and City of Winnipeg, to gather feedback and expertise, and to provide information on the competition. Engagement is an ongoing part of Visionary (re)Generation and will continue throughout the competition and beyond. Below are some of the major meetings and events that have occurred.
