UN SDGs and Affordable Housing in Nova Scotia

With funding from Employment and Social Development Canada, the United Nations (UN) Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and Affordable Housing in Nova Scotia initiative will connect affordable housing organizations through a series of county meetings to learn more about the SDGs that relate to housing. Three webinars and five People’s Schools  provide opportunities for deeper discussion about how the SDGs can inform and inspire action in our communities. A digital map is also being developed that will identify organizations whose work aligns with the SDGs as it relates to affordable housing in Nova Scotia.

St. Francis Xavier University and Coady Institute stand on the lands of Mi’kma’ki, the ancestral and unceded home of the Mi’kmaw. We express our deep gratitude and appreciation to the generations of Mi’kmaw who, since time immemorial, have loved and stewarded these lands and the beings who call them home. Colonization is not just history; it exists in the present tense. While we strive to decolonize ourselves and our University, we know there is still much for us to learn.

We are committed to doing the hard work of self-reflection and to repairing relationships with the Mi’kmaw on whose lands we reside, including embracing the Truth and Reconciliation Commission of Canada Calls to Action and embodying their spirit in our plans to move forward with our University.
