This time we talk to organizations that have achieved major policy changes that have slowed  development, laying the ground work for acquisition and community stewardship of their  neighbourhoods. 

With Adriana Abizadeh, Executive Director of the Kensington Corridor Trust; Wendy Pedersen, Executive Director of the SRO-collective and Jessica Chen, Executive Director and Board Liaison of the Jia Foundation. 

Notes:  

Wendy discusses Jane McAlevey, an American union organizer, political commentator and  author, who died in July 2024. You can find more about her work and her books here.
