Help Shape the Sustainability Action Agenda
Let’s create a Detroit where all residents can save money, have clean walkable neighborhoods, pursue good jobs, and live a healthy lifestyle.
The Office of Sustainability is looking to work with engaged and motivated Detroiters to uplift residents’ voices and keep the community connected during the planning phase and beyond.
Sustainability Ambassadors will be advocates for Detroiters, first and foremost. Ambassadors will seek ideas and input from people in their neighborhoods and help us shape an agenda that puts all Detroiters first. The plan will inform how we:
- Increase access to healthy food
- Provide more transportation options
- Connect to affordable housing
- Lower utility bills
- Create clean and healthy neighborhoods
Get Involved!
The Action Agenda will help the City facilitate healthy, green, vibrant, and interconnected neighborhoods for all Detroiters. Through this effort we will join 100’s of major cities with similar foundational plans that have enhanced the way cities operate and their quality of life.The Action Agenda process works to create an overarching strategy and framework for sustainability actions in Detroit that aligns City and community actors around a common set of outcomes and goals.
Community engagement will be at the core of the Sustainability Action Agenda process. We plan to meet people “where they are at” through a range of techniques online and offline, including the recruitment of neighborhood-level ambassadors.
