CityStudio Ottawa

CityStudio Ottawa allows students to tackle community-based issues in the City of Ottawa, related to their coursework.

CityStudio Ottawa is a formal trust-based partnership between the Community Engagement and Employability Team and Faculty of Medicine at University of Ottawa, and the City of Ottawa.

Through co-creation with our community, students, and faculty, CityStudio Ottawa finds creative solutions to Ottawa’s priorities highlighted in the City of Ottawa’s Community Safety and Well-Being (CSWB) Plan. This plan describes how the city will work with its community partners to improve the safety, health and well-being of Ottawa residents.

CityStudio Ottawa Priorities

The six priorities, identified through a consultative process with involved parties and the public, are:

  • Discrimination, marginalization, and racism
  • Financial security and poverty reduction
  • Gender-based violence and violence against women
  • Housing
  • Integrated and simpler systems
  • Mental well-being

Together, CityStudio Ottawa will work towards a more inclusive, sustainable, and healthier city.
