We live in dynamic and ever-changing times and as such it is always important for communities through-out BC to prepare for and adapt to these changes. This inspired the question: how can a community become more resilient so when change happens, they can adapt, innovate, and thrive?
The answer is multi-faceted, and the best way to start understanding potential threats (to proactively mitigate them), and opportunities (to proactively to pursue them), is to engage with stakeholders – the community of Merritt.
WorkBC and Community Futures Nicola Valley have spearheaded a Thriving Communities project to ask strategic questions of local citizens, find out what’s on the minds of local workers and business leaders. All information will be used to develop a labour market study to pinpoint potential gaps and uncover innovative opportunities just waiting to be realized.
