| dc.description.abstract | How are Community Economic Development (CED) principles helping to improve the economic sustainability of Winnipeg’s North End? This core question guides my research. The main objective is to study how CED principles have been incorporated in a program, to examine how they have been implemented, and how the program contributed to neighbourhood economic stability. In Winnipeg’s North End, residents have experienced poor quality housing, low educational attainment, high unemployment rates and visible poverty. This has contributed to the deterioration of the neighbourhood. To help revitalize these neighbourhoods, local organizations are using CED principles in their programs; they focus on addressing the physical, social and economic gaps, and the challenges many residents face. Inner-City Renovations is one social enterprise applying CED principles to improve the economic stability by utilizing the available local resources. This paper aims to identify how CED principles are contributing to the economic sustainability of Winnipeg’s North End. | en_US |
