Concert Properties Gives Back
We are deeply invested in improving the lives of the people who live and work in our communities. This philosophy extends to our corporate giving program. We recognize that all Canadians should be able to live and work with dignity. Based on this belief we invest in trades training programs and causes focused on housing, and the health and welfare of Canadians wherever we build and work. Our corporate giving includes many philanthropic endeavors, from donating staff time, as well as money, and resources to worthy projects and organizations all over Canada.
Sustainability Goals & Targets
As a company, we weave environmental, social and economic sustainability practices into every level of our business. Where possible, we seek to maximize synergies among these three priorities.

Environmental Sustainability
We are taking bold action to fight climate change, save energy and reduce waste—when designing and constructing our buildings, and in our day-to-day corporate operations.

Social Impact
In our efforts to nurture thriving, resilient communities, we work to foster social connections between residents—helping members of our community foster inclusive, strong relationships with one another.

Good Governance
Concert was founded to create a reliable return on investment for Canadian pension plans and provide quality employment opportunities for a diverse cross-section of Canadians.
Sustainability Metrics
Operational Carbon Emissions
Reducing carbon pollution is a top priority for Concert. We’re committed to achieving an 80% reduction in our corporate GHG emissions by 2050.
Embodied Carbon Emissions
As we aggressively reduce our buildings’ operational emissions, our focus will shift to tackling the embodied emissions that result from the construction of our buildings. We’re committed to tracking these emissions on every project, and reducing them where possible.
Green Buildings
Whether we’re building new properties with the latest environmental innovations or retrofitting existing properties, reducing GHG emissions and creating healthy spaces in our properties are top priorities.
Waste Diverted
We seek to minimize waste in our business operations and building operations, offering solutions like multi-source recycling programs and innovative construction waste diversion practices.
Health & Social Wellness
Through thoughtful design of facilities, amenities and programming, we foster healthy choices and community connection, enhancing the well-being of our residents.
Inclusion
We want Concert properties to be accessible to everyone. We seek to be equitable and inclusive in all that we do, and to continue creating affordable housing options.
Transportation
We carefully consider walkability scores in neighbourhoods where we develop buildings, and have introduced initiatives to encourage carpooling, cycling, transit and the use of electric vehicles among our staff.
Transparency
We know we have a long way to go. That’s why we feel it’s important to disclose key metrics, such as our annual GHG emissions, so our wider community helps hold us accountable to our goals.
