Construction projects influence our communities beyond the physical structures they build. They also impact local economies and labour markets, whether intended or not. If these impacts are considered with positive intention, the projects bring the opportunity to create long-lasting economic and social benefits with and for the communities in which they occur.
Join Buy Social Canada to explore a new Community Benefits in Construction: Mandate, Design and Implement Guide that supports community advocates, policy makers and project owners who want to create community benefits in construction, infrastructure, and development projects. We will take you through three stages of community benefits in construction: Mandate, Design, and Implement.
In addition to an overview of the Guide, we will share updates and best practices from current projects across the country which are implementing community benefits.
