CAN Active LIVES adds the human context behind participation data. Drawing on community-level survey data, it surfaces the barriers, motivations, and equity gaps that shape who is, and isn’t, participating in sport, physical activity, recreation – and why. Layered with CAN Active SPACES and CAN Active MOVEMENT, it gives leaders an integrated view that connects infrastructure and usage data to the lived experience of residents.
With CAN Active LIVES, organizations can identify the barriers limiting participation, design programs that reflect real community needs, and prioritize investments that improve access and equity. It also strengthens inclusion strategies and grant proposals with community-validated evidence, helping teams track and improve participation outcomes over time.
