Join our webinar on social sustainability in multi-unit housing
This CMHC-hosted webinar will focus on key learnings from Hey Neighbour Collective partners about programming and partnership approaches that can build community and resilience.
Join us on March 1st at 10 AM PST for a free, CMHC-hosted webinar to learn more about building social sustainability in multi-unit housing.
As Canadian cities densify, multi-unit housing is becoming a dominant form for many households. These housing types, however, sometimes offer lower levels of connection between neighbours and a reduced feeling of community.
But multi-unit housing is not inherently isolating: thoughtful design and programming can help to build community, neighbourly connections and community resilience.
Learn from three Hey Neighbour Collective partners about a range of programming and partnership approaches that strengthen social sustainability in existing multi-unit housing and explore the benefits for both residents and housing operators.
This webinar will be presented in English, with slides translated into French.
