Initially launched in Summer 2023, this program began as one of several listening projects co-designed with researchers at the University of Toronto Scarborough – Urban Just Transitions Research Cluster, aimed at exploring how climate action intersects with people’s everyday concerns.
Made possible thanks to the generous support of our community partners.
