Harmony Foundation of Canada Information

Harmony Foundation is a registered charitable organization recognized internationally for its leadership in multi-sector cooperation and creating innovative training programs and educational materials for educators, youth, the workplace and communities. Harmony was created in 1985 by Michael Bloomfield to provide the education and encourage the cooperation essential to successful transition to development which is socially and environmentally sustainable. We believe that sustainable societies depend upon greater investment in education which produces informed people working together for positive change; transforming harmful growth patterns into a positive movement toward long-term prosperity, social harmony and ecological stability. Our world is faced with new social, economic and environmental realities that require changes in our lives. Communities around the world are facing economic, social and environmental realities that require changes in our lives. Sustainable Community Development is a pro-active strategy to plan, develop and manage our cities, towns and neighbourhoods so economic development is not only compatible with but beneficial to the environment, public heath and the social and cultural assets of the community.
