Event Description:
Join us for a free webinar on the evening of April 13th. Toronto is months away from debating and implementing Inclusionary Zoning (IZ) — a policy that could create thousands of affordable rental units every year simply by requiring developments include them. This event convenes academics, politicians, and activists to discuss their perspectives on the potential of IZ to address Toronto’s affordable housing crisis.
