Resumen de la sesión:

No issue has dominated the political and industry agenda more in recent years than housing costs and affordability, now ranked the top social/political issue among respondents to this year’s PwC/ULI Emerging Trends in Real Estate survey. From market affordable to deeply subsidized housing, the challenge to arrest spiraling home ownership costs and rent increases appears out of control. With quality of life and the region’s prosperity at stake, join ULI Toronto for a special five-part webinar series during National Housing Week that explores what most describe as a housing affordability crisis in the GTA: what is fueling it, the impact of current efforts, and new ideas to truly and sustainably solve for it. The National Housing Strategy introduced on November 22, 2017 promised legislation to implement the government’s commitment to the progressive realization of the “right to housing” as guaranteed in international human rights law. What does this right mean and what is the collective duty across the public and private sectors in Canada to achieve this international standard? More immediately, as winter approaches, how are we meeting our moral obligation to address our worst ever homelessness crisis in the region?

A recording of this session is available here.

In 2022, the Terwilliger Center for Housing, with initial funding by philanthropist and entrepreneur Preston Butcher, launched the Homeless to Housed Initiative, which works to explore real estate solutions to the growing crisis impacting communities everywhere.
