We know that bringing people and organizations together to learn and share is integral to the development of our sector.
To better understand how the S4ES project connects communities we partnered with Saint Mary's University to map our relationships.
We tracked the number of relationships established through S4ES since we started in 2017. In the past three years, we have expanded our network from 98 actors to 348.
As we explore these connections, we strengthen and expand them, gathering more information and providing better services.
