Consulting Services
The Montréal Urban Ecology Centre established a consulting service in hopes that we would be able to go further with our clients than more traditional consulting companies do. We see this as another way of achieving our mission to create a greener and more democratic city.
We aim to put our fundamental principles and our expertise at the cutting edge of the best practices in the world to better serve those who want to take on the challenges of sustainable urban development.
