Applications For ActivateYYC 2022 are now open!
ActivateYYC is unique in that it focuses on tactical urbanism, small temporary low-cost initiatives that help change how people use and interact with spaces. Tactical urbanism initiatives spark neighbourly conversations which builds community connection, increases the movement of residents in a community and creates safer streets. Many of our projects challenge city processes and some even lead to permanent changes.
ActivateYYC 2022 will have two funding streams: $1000 Walk, Play and Be Neighbourly and $3000 Bump-Outs & Pathways.
