Whistler2020 is a shared vision and plan that was created by the community, and is being implemented by the community. Hundreds of individuals and organizations are involved on an ongoing basis through work as task force members, implementing organizations, Whistler2020 Partners and in many other ways. In terms of our general planning philosophy, Whistler2020 takes a systems perspective and is rooted in science-based sustainability objectives.

To identify a path forward, we use a back-casting approach where we envision what Whistler would look like in a successful and sustainable future, and then identify actions to achieve this future ( as opposed to forecasting, which is based on current or historic trends).
