Nature knows best: How can we unify natural assets with Canada’s housing supply?
Thursday September 12th @ noon

Description: 
The intersection of housing policy and natural infrastructures has never been more critical. Join us this Thursday September 12 for a lively conversation organized by the Natural Assets Initiative and Canadian Urban Institute (CUI) based on a recent CUI report: “Both/And: Integrating Natural Asset Management into Federal Housing Supply Policymaking.” The expert panel will dive into Canada’s needs for more homes, but at the same time, the needs to preserve and enhance natural assets, which keep those homes safe, resilient and well-served with vital functions like storm water management and flood management for their lifetime. A critical current issue not just for community resilience to climate change, but to elevate the quality of life for all Canadians.
