Shaping Future Engagement
Public engagement is one of the ways BC Ferries listens to and learns from the communities we serve.
We believe that every voice matters and that is why we have created a new engagement framework with input from coastal communities. We have built a framework that will allow us to deepen connections, and drive impactful outcomes that reflect diverse voices.
Between December 2024 and May 2025, we conducted in-depth research and sought input from diverse groups to develop our new engagement framework. Our thorough and inclusive process ensured it reflected the needs and priorities of communities, local governments, First Nations, BC Ferries staff, and other interest holders. Feedback gathered through this process was carefully considered alongside best practice research, internal assessment and available resources, to shape future BC Ferries engagements.
Thank you to all those that participated in helping shape our engagement framework.
Visit bcferriessprojects.ca/your-coastal-community to learn more about our future-focused community engagement efforts, sign up for project updates, and get involved in projects taking place in the coastal regions we serve.
