Urban Work Index 2023 Information Session
June 15, 2023 @ 10:00 am - 11:00 pm
The Urban Work Index ranks 30 cities to find the best places in Canada for young people (ages 15 – 29) to work and live.
The Index scores cities on 150+ measurements and 10 topics. The primary 5 topics make up the ecosystem of work — Education + Training, Affordability, Good Youth Jobs, Entrepreneurial Spirit, and City Economy. The secondary topics make up urban attractions for work — Equity + Diversity, Climate Action, Public Health, Transportation, and Digital Access.
The results will be used by young people making a decision about where to work and live and by municipal leaders, organizations, and change makers to support, retain, and attract young people.
The session will share the results of the ranking, and provide more details on opportunities available for cities and organizations for collaboration and partnerships.
