The SHS Project is offered in partnership with the Sierra Youth Coalition, the youth branch of the Sierra Club.

Sustainable High Schools is adapted from SYC's successful Sustainable Campuses Project.

Both are youth-driven initiatives created to support school communities in envisioning, assessing and improving their level of ecological and social well-being.

In the summer of 2007, the Communities-based Research Laboratory (CBRL) at the University of Victoria conducted a participatory-based livelihood assessment of the binning community in Victoria, an initiative in collaboration with the University of British Columbia and funded by Human Resources and Skills Development Canada (HRSDC).

The University of Victoria Community Green Map project (UVic-CGMP) will provide a participatory mapping and planning system, including learning and technical tools, to facilitate innovative and sustainable development at UVic and in the wider community.
