We had the pleasure of sitting down with Dave Harder and Thomas Cumberbatch who kindly shared their perspectives on some of the sustainable development goals (SDGs), which includes SDG 11 (Sustainable cities and communities). This discussion allowed us to learn how Dave’s and Thomas’s work with Good City People contribute to making communities safer, and more resilient and sustainable. As fathers and individuals who’ve worked extensively with youths, they’ve also shared interesting insights on some of the biggest challenges that Canadian youth face as well as proactive approaches to tackle these challenges.
