At the Real Estate Foundation of BC, our vision is a healthy environment that supports thriving, resilient, liveable communities from one generation to the next. In the course of our work, we are continually learning, asking questions, and assessing our impact.

We’re excited to share our Strategic Plan 2022-2025. This document, along with the wisdom of partners, rights holders, staff, advisors, governors, and the community, will guide us on our path for the next three years.

With this plan, we commit to working together with people and communities across British Columbia in ways that advance sustainable, equitable, and socially just relationships with land and real estate. Our four priorities — making just investments, building strong relationships, sharing transformative stories, and tending good roots — will help us find focus and common ground with those who share our vision, values, and goals.

More than 150 people contributed to the development of this plan through participation in a community listening survey, focus groups, and interviews. We’ve incorporated what we’ve learned from our 2021 Impact Report, grantee reporting, and emergent findings from the Healthy Watersheds Initiative. And we’ve taken note of the growing recognition, within our field and more broadly, that people’s relationships with sustainable land use and real estate practices are fundamentally shaped by their different experiences of equity, social justice, and rights.

We are committed to upholding our core values — equity, decolonizing, reciprocity, sustainability, and integrity — in our granting, investing, research, storytelling, and convening. We’re looking forward to sharing more news on how we’ll do that.

Thanks to the many people who shared their voice and experience with us, we are motivated and inspired to breathe life into our vision, mission, and values. We would love to hear your thoughts on our plan. As we turn the plan into action, we pledge to continue to listen, learn, and adapt.

Join us on our path for 2022-2025.
