Whistler's Community-Driven Data Program
Whistler’s Vital Signs uses local knowledge to measure the vitality of our community and support action.
Local data gathered through the program is used to support evidence-based, locally relevant solutions to improve the quality of life at the community level.
Whistler’s Vital Signs aims to inspire civic engagement, to provide focus for public debate, and to help a range of actors take action and direct resources where they will have the greatest impact.

Locally Relevant Solutions Through a Global Looking Glass
In 2017, Community Foundations of Canada started to align our national data sets with Agenda 2030, the United Nations’ 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). The SDG framework allows Whistler to measure local data against common global indicators.
Yes, there is poverty in Whistler, but we as individuals and as a collective community have the power to help change that.
Whistler’s Vital Signs Reports
Whistler’s Vital Signs is led by local people and used by neighbours, businesses, non-profit organizations, community groups and civic leaders to learn more about Whistler’s community-based needs. The report is helpful in defining action and directing resources where it will have the greatest impact.
