Invigorating Democracy

Document Actions
Our mission is about invigorating democracy—helping people control the future of their communities, economy, and environment.

Dogwood Initiative believes a just, equitable and sustainable society is possible in BC. We are uniting non-traditional allies to create and implement common-ground solutions to unsustainable forestry and energy development.

We work with communities, First Nations and labour allies to ensure a future in which land is used sustainably, for the benefit of all people.

By developing common ground, we can promote sustainable, community-centred solutions and build strong alliances to resist anti-democratic initiative, such as the government's ill-advised privatization schemes.

Only by working together—developing an informed and engaged citizenry—can we achieve our vision for society.

"At first people refuse to believe that a strange new thing can be done, then they begin to hope it can't be done, then they see it can be done, then it is done and all the world wonders why it was not done centuries before."
