Services
The Whistler Centre for Sustainability provides innovative community sustainability planning services focusing on small to medium sized communities and specializing in those with a tourism-based economy or a tourism focus.
Our expertise in the niche areas of community and tourism sustainability emerges largely from our reputation and experience developing Whistler2020 – Whistler’s integrated community sustainability plan, and Whistler’s status as a premier destination resort community. This expertise has enabled us to provide consulting services to a number of communities and tourism enterprises in BC and Canada, providing clients with the strategic sustainability services and learning opportunities necessary for them to create and maintain a competitive advantage in the marketplace and to contribute to a sustainable future.
