On June 26, 2019 from 12:00 PM \u2013 1:00 PM ET, join us for Affordable Housing and Community-Campus Partnerships In Canada: Growing the Potential Role (and Response-Ability) of Post Secondary Institutions (PSIs) to Increase Affordable Housing<\/em>.<\/p>\n

Student’s inability to find housing that is affordable on or near campus has had impacts on housing affordability, placing pressure on the wider housing system. While post secondary institutions (PSIs) have been leveraging their assets in new ways for the public good, this webinar discussion extends the discourse around leveraging social infrastructure and assets to explore issues related to the responsibility of PSIs to house their own students and opportunities for community-campus partnerships and innovation to contribute to broader social goals.<\/p>\n

Presenters will discuss their work within the context of the affordable housing crisis as it relates to students and the wider public. We will explore innovative examples from the nonprofit development sector; how assets are being leveraged to meet affordable housing goals; and how post secondary institutions contribute to this important work. Discussion will centre on what role community-campus partnerships could play in affordable housing work — particularly with respect to how PSIs could work with nonprofit developers, foundations or alternative financial institutions, and government to advance this work.<\/p>\n

Key questions that the presenters will explore include:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. What is the context of the affordable housing crisis?<\/li>\n
  2. What role could Canadian campuses (PSIs) play to leverage their resources to respond to the housing crisis?<\/li>\n
  3. What are non profit groups doing to respond to these issues?<\/li>\n
  4. How might community-campus partnerships be used to address these challenges?<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    This webinar is being presented in partnership with CFICE, CCEC, and New Commons Development.<\/p>\n
