About this listen
How can data and mapping technology drive social change? In this episode of Geographical Thinking, we explore the Community Prosperity Hub, a powerful initiative that brings together nonprofits, policymakers, and residents to tackle community challenges with data-driven solutions.
Host Michelle Brake is joined by Sandi MacKinnon, Executive Director of Greater Fredericton Social Innovation, Kate Walsh, Project Coordinator at GFSI, and Rob Lunn, GIS Coordinator for the City of Fredericton. Together, they discuss the origins of the Community Prosperity Hub, the impact of GIS in supporting local decision-making, and how collaboration is shaping a more inclusive and resilient Fredericton.
From innovative partnerships to real-world success stories—like how local councillors used GIS data to better understand their wards—this episode highlights the power of maps in fostering meaningful change. Tune in to discover how geography and social innovation come together to build stronger communities.
