Housing and Hunger in BC: A symposium linking lived experience, policy, research and programming
Nov 20, 2013
Sheraton Vancouver Airport Hotel, Richmond, BC
You’re invited to a special day-long symposium exploring the connection between social housing and food security on November 20, 2013 in Richmond, BC. Housing and Hunger in BC: A symposium linking lived experience, policy, research and programming is presented by BC Non-Profit Housing Association (BCNPHA) in partnership with Vancouver Coastal Health and the Food Security in Social Housing Working Group. Our long-term goal is to facilitate systemic change by identifying housing policies, programs, infrastructure, and design that will improve and sustain food security for social housing tenants.
The Symposium is a special, stand-alone component of BCNPHA’s Annual Non-Profit Housing Conference (Nov 18-20). Symposium sessions will explore a broad range of topics, weaving together research, practice, and lived experience. Registration for the Symposium opens on August 15th.
Sponsorship for this initiative has been generously provided by the Real Estate Foundation of BC, Vancouver Coastal Health, and Metro Vancouver.
