Transforming

where we live so that everyone can belong, participate and thrive.
Women Transforming Cities aims to radically shift social, economic, and political power to equity-deserving groups to reshape who cities are built by and for so that communities’ needs are met and everyone can belong, participate, and thrive.

Hot Pink Paper Campaign: Two-Year Progress Report

Read our two-year progress report where we unpack whether Mayor Sim and Vancouver City Council are moving forward or backward on their equity commitments halfway through their term. ⁠

Our Hot Pink Paper Campaign (HPPC) holds Vancouver City Council accountable to their commitments by tracking how councillors have voted on decisions that impact equity-deserving communities on key topics like affordable housing, climate action, public washrooms and more.
