About this Event
Join the Institute for Research on Public Policy (IRPP) and the Affordability Action Council (AAC) on Monday, October 21 in Toronto or online for a panel discussion about affordable, future-ready housing.
The need for housing that meets affordability, sustainability and climate-resilience goals is more pressing than ever. Future-ready community infrastructure combines transit-oriented development, energy-efficient and climate-resilient design, and deeply affordable housing.
Drawing on the recommendations from the Affordability Action Council, Cherise Burda, Runa Das and Ray Williams will discuss innovative approaches to the financing, design and policies that can create future-ready, affordable housing. IRPP research director Shaimaa Yassin will moderate the conversation, which will be followed by a Q&A.
This is a hybrid event that will take place in person at CSI Spadina in Toronto and online via Zoom. Participation is free, though space is limited, and registration is required. A light reception will follow the panel discussion.
About the Affordability Action Council: The AAC is a dedicated, pan-Canadian group that brings together diverse policy experts and community leaders to come up with new approaches to policymaking that considers all basic needs, including housing, food, transportation and a livable climate. It is an initiative of the Institute for Research on Public Policy, the Trottier Family Foundation and the McConnell Foundation. Learn more here: https://irpp.org/affordability
