The Research for Social Change Lab (RSCL) and A Question of Care (QoC) are partnering to put on a symposium on housing and homelessness in Peterborough on February 22 & 23, 2024. This event is a follow-up to the housing forum held in May 2023. It will focus on community collaboration and systems planning to help problem-solve the housing and homelessness crisis in Peterborough City and County. This two-day event will involve several interactive presentations and action-oriented activities.

We are organizing presentations by people with local expertise. We invite creative proposals for presentations on systemic change work, research and research-to-action initiatives, and updates on what's happening in the Peterborough community around housing. Just a note that we are not seeking presentations on programs/services, though this information may also be provided at the symposium through leaflets/posters.

If you or your organization has new initiatives or knowledge that are key to understanding local homelessness and responses to it, and if you would like to present at the symposium, please let us know by filling out the below form.
