| Event Description |
Beyond access to adequate housing, which remains a priority in Québec, efforts have been made in recent years to develop a healthy and stimulating milieu where each citizen can participate in the decisions regarding his or her immediate environment and quality of life. Thus, management tools are put in place to improve the conditions of residents, but also to favour their inclusion within and integration into the social and economic life of the community. The proposed panel discussion should constitute a unique opportunity to exchange and share innovative ideas aimed at the same objective, that is, the implication of those for whom social housing programs have been developed.

Organization Description |
The Société d'habitation du Québec is the agency responsible for preparing and implementing housing support policies and programs in Québec. It is the Québec government’s principal advisor in the field of housing. Created in 1967, it plays a dual social and economic role. As well as helping low-income households to obtain suitable housing at an affordable price, it encourages community housing initiatives and provides support to help keep rural and urban homes in Québec in good condition. Since 1997, it has also been responsible for supporting the growth and development of Québec’s housing industry, especially on foreign markets. |
