Coworking Canada

About US

First established in 2012 to support local coworking operators, Coworking Canada now serves the larger coworking movement. 

Coworking Canada is a non-profit organization, providing guidance, programming, resources and support for all collaborative organizations and co-operative communities, who are working together to make work – and the world – a better place.

At the annual Coworking Canada Unconference we invite the world to join us as we share coworking ideas and resources from coast to coast to coast.

This annual event has been produced by Ashley Proctor and the Creative Blueprint team, and it’s a unique opportunity to gather together, to explore collaborative intersections, opportunities, and the complexity of an evolving movement.  It’s also where we meet other coworking peers, partners, and community organizers.

As an organization;

We value community and collaboration over competition,

We recognize all the work done before and for us across the lands colonially known as ‘Canada’, particularly the essential work and knowledge shared by Indigenous Peoples, 

We believe in creating opportunities to share the collective knowledge and experiences we all have,

We strive to achieve the global core values of coworking, and to improve Inclusion, Diversity, Equity and Accessibility in the coworking movement,

We believe in a Just Recovery for All,

We believe the experience of ‘collaboration’ and ‘work’ can and should be better for everyone, and

Collectively, we are shaping the way we work in Canada.
