SDG 11

Examples of UN SDG 11: Sustainable Cities and Communities in Action

SDG 11 aims to make cities and human settlements inclusive, safe, resilient, and sustainable. As urban populations grow, the challenge of ensuring access to affordable housing, transportation, and basic services increases. This goal focuses on improving urban planning, reducing the environmental impact of cities, and ensuring that everyone has access to clean water, sanitation, and green spaces. By building cities that are sustainable and inclusive, SDG 11 works to create environments where people can live healthy, fulfilling lives, while minimizing the strain on natural resources and ensuring social and economic equity.

Winnipeg’s Enduring Ghost Signs

The dome of the St. Boniface Archdiocese rises with quiet dignity over Winnipeg’s historic French quarter, a structure as solemn as it is beautiful. Caught in the crisp contrast of winter sun and shadow, the building’s architectural grace tells a story of leadership and legacy. The Romanesque lines and tall, narrow windows evoke the traditions of the Church, while its presence reminds visitors of the enduring role St. Boniface has played in shaping Métis, Francophone, and Catholic identities.
