Downtown Safety Leadership Table

The Downtown Safety Leadership Table was established to bring downtown leaders together to address safety challenges and support a vibrant downtown. In 2024, the Table released 28 recommendations aimed at improving safety, wellbeing and public confidence downtown. The Table disbanded in March 2024, but their recommendations continue to shape current community safety and wellbeing programs and initiatives across The City.

The Table's recommendations

The recommendations focused on three areas:

  • 17

    Wellbeing of people
  • 8

    Great public spaces
  • 3

    Timely response

The recommendations helped inform ongoing community safety and wellbeing work across Calgary, including the development of Safer Together.
