About the initiative
In early 2023, Waterloo at 100 was launched, sharing a vision for Waterloo in 2057. While embracing our strengths and foundation, Waterloo at 100 envisioned a community of curious, collaborative, innovative and entrepreneurial problem-solvers and leaders who seek to understand and identify equitable and sustainable solutions for the future of humanity and our planet.
“We must continue to be bold and unconventional as we help shape a better future for humanity and the planet.”
- Vivek Goel
To realize the Waterloo at 100 vision, we started by revisiting our values. Specifically, “…we will start by revisiting our values to catalyze a culture shift to work more nimbly and collaboratively.”
This re-assessment of our values was also informed by the President’s Anti-Racism Taskforce report recommendations to revise our values, applying the lenses of anti-racism and anti-oppression.
