BC Ideas<\/h1>\n\n

Engagement Summary<\/strong><\/h2>\n

BC Ideas was an online competition that asked British Columbians to bring forward innovative ideas and programs that address the challenges facing our province.
\n 
\nOver $100,000 in investments will be distributed to support creative solutions to health, social, and environmental challenges in communities across the province. Funding is being determined through an online competition.
\n 
\nTo achieve stronger B.C. communities, creative solutions will be at the core of a new approach to social change \u2013 one that identifies the hard work and expertise of local problem solvers, and supports and spreads your work by nurturing collaboration. All stages of solutions were welcome and encouraged, from ideas to established programs.
\n 
\nBC Ideas invited the participation of people across our province \u2013 from not-for-profit professionals and business owners, to long-time innovators and passionate advocates, to First Nations and new immigrants, to students and seniors.
