Greater Fredericton Social Innovation Inc. (GFSI) is a social planning council that works to strengthen our community by focusing collective efforts and resources on community defined goals. GFSI was developed to fill the need for long-term social planning in the Fredericton region. GFSI adapted the successful model used by the Human Development Council in Saint John and other social planning councils across the country to facilitate action aimed at making our community a better place to live, work and play.

The mission of GFSI is to enable a process through which diverse stakeholders work together openly, collaboratively and strategically towards a shared common future. GFSI supports the community to maximize its potential by

  • facilitating collective decision making,
  • establishing a clear and shared vision of community priorities,
  • coordinating collaborative work across sectors,
  • offering broad avenues for civic engagement,
  • taking strategic action for the next generation
