2019 BC Land Summit Conference Session
The 2019 BC Land Summit is a gathering of a diverse group of experts and professionals with a range of insights into the nature of the land system in BC. With our focus on cross-sectoral partnerships in affordable housing, we will discuss housing partnerships at length and our panel of experts will lead facilitated conversations to address a range of questions regarding the potential for partnerships within BC. Through small group discussions, we will ask our audience to consider the possibilities for, and obstacles to, partnerships between various actors in BC’s housing system. We will then ask participants to consider how the structural issues facing the provision of affordable housing in BC and how innovative partnerships can be leveraged to overcome these impediments.
Panelists:
- Penny Gurstein, The University of British Columbia
- Karen Hemmingson, BC Housing
- Tiffany Duzita, Community Land Trust
- Ric Matthews, Inclusive Communities of Care
