State of the Inner City 2024: Visioning a Just Transformation in Winnipeg’s Inner City
Winnipeg, MB – The 2024 State of the Inner City report, titled “Visioning a Just Transformation in Winnipeg’s Inner City,” will be released on

Program: 11:00 – 12:00, followed by lunch

Winnipeg’s inner city is home to low-income Indigenous, Black, and people of color communities who have long faced significant challenges, including homelessness, poverty, and systemic colonial impacts. Building on the 2021 report’s call for a just recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic, this year’s report argues that more profound transformation is needed to achieve genuine social and economic justice. Community leaders advocate for action that goes beyond recovery, demanding a fundamental change rooted in Indigenous self-determination.
About the Project
The State of the Inner City report is a collaborative project supported by an advisory committee of leaders from nine inner-city community-based organizations. The report aims to advance the vision of social and economic transformation in Winnipeg’s inner city.
