Metro Vancouver — Housing and Affordability
To organize 30Network Vancouver on Housing and Affordability, Youthful Cities partnered with Vancouver-based organization CityHive. CityHive is on a mission to transform the way that youth are engaged in civic processes, planning and decision-making in Vancouver.
Together, CityHive & Youthful Cities co-hosted Vancouver’s 30Network: Housing & Affordability, a pop-up think & do tank of the top 30 young urban influencers under 30. There has been talk about young people being affected by unaffordability of housing, but not as much talk with or by young people. The 30Network took this conversation one step further. Over four sessions, these 30 influencers co-created innovative solutions to housing and affordability challenges in Vancouver, in collaboration with key partners in the city. We would like to thank all of our partners, without whose support the 30Network YVR would not be possible. To our presenting sponsors: Generation Squeeze, and LandlordBC, Real Estate Foundation of BC, Downtown Vancouver Business Improvement Association, Cities4People by The McConnell Foundation, Vancity. To our event sponsors: HCMA Architecture + Design, RADIUS SFU, and Embark.
