WHO WE ARE
Wiser Projects is a growing community planning and development firm based in Victoria, B.C, with resources across Vancouver Island. We strive to bring our value
- based practice of planning and development to each of our projects and clients. Our goal is to support the capacity of our partners so they can manage projects more efficiently, effectively, and independently the next time around. We are a female-led organization pursuing B-Corp status that aims to be transparent, inclusive, supportive and flexible in our work. This can be translated as us supporting our client partners in whatever it takes to realize the vision of the project, while meeting community goals along the way. It also means we strive to create a supportive, peer-to-peer learning environment where we can all growth and meet professional and personal goals.

Most of our clients and projects are non-profit, Indigenous governments, and community
- oriented private sector clients who are completing planning and development projects. Many of our projects are housing related, whether it be building seniors, ‘missing middle,’ family
- oriented, or Indigenous and culturally supportive housing projects. We frequently work on unique public projects that excite our team and invigorate neighbourhoods and cities; these include Art Galleries, Cathedrals, and policy work such as age-friendly assessments.
