CityStudio is a proven model of experiential education and civic engagement that is developing tomorrow's leaders by opening up municipal government to the classroom. Started in Vancouver, the CityStudio model is now used in 10 different municipalities across Canada and is coming to the Region of Durham.
CityStudio Durham is a collaboration between the Region of Durham, Durham Regional Police Service, Durham College, Ontario Tech University and Trent University - Durham. By furthering connections between municipal government, academic institutions, and local community, Durham's post-secondary students have real opportunities to apply their skills, creativity, and entrepreneurial spirit to challenges facing our community to shape a better future for our region.
