Our mission is to ignite action and challenge the status quo to create healthier, more equitable, and sustainable cities for all people.
We work with community partners to put neighbourhoods back at the center of city development.
We co-create inclusive engagement strategies with community partners that activate public space.
We provide unique training and capacity building workshops on creating equitable and age-friendly cities and public spaces.
We work with partners and clients to create attractive and accessible public space resources and toolkits.
We develop custom-made programs in collaboration with funders and partners that break the mold.
We are thrilled to share the 30 successful changemakers who will join us this October for the OCC Studio in Toronto! Congratulations to the 2024 Cohort. We look forward to hosting you and learning from you.
The 8 80 concept is universal. From communities of 5,000 to 5 million, our projects always start at the same place: how do we meaningfully engage people in urban transformation?

Cities for Everyone. The Webinar: 8 80 Cities
8 80 Cities acknowledges that the land on which we are situated is the traditional territory of the Mississaugas of the Credit, the Anishinaabe, the Chippewa, the Haudenosaunee, the Huron-Wendat, and Petun First Nations. These lands are the site of Treaty 13 and the Dish With One Spoon Wampum Belt Covenant — an agreement forged between the Anishinaabe Nation and the Haudenosaunee Confederacy to peaceably share resources around the Great Lakes.
We are mindful of broken covenants, violations of human and treaty rights, and affirm the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples. It is our responsibility to actively interrogate and challenge settler-colonial systems of oppression through our work. We are committed to strengthening our relationships with Indigenous Peoples and Lands.
