It is a lot easier to enourage walking when a community is walkable and accessible. NS walks aims to contribute to walkable communities in our province. HERE is our new video talking about how we are working with communites to help this happen.
The walking audit toolkit is available FREE for communities interested in doing a walking audit. Email us office@hikenovascotia if you would like one
Communities of Practice
We now have a "community of practice" open to anyone who wants to learn from each other on improving walkabilty. We have opportunities for sharing and professional development throughout the year. As well, you can connect with other communites who are working to improve walkabilty. If you wish to join the community, you can email walk@hikenovascotia.ca
As part of our commitment to help communities become more walkable, HERE is the recording of a webinar we arranged featuring Kate Moon from HRM on Placemaking.
This project was funded by the Province of Nova Scotia Connect2 Program.
