Dr. Tsitsi Mpofu-Mketwa, Director of the Centre for Studies on Poverty and Social Citizenship (CSPSC), participated in the Canadian Alliance to End Homelessness<\/a> (CAEH25) Conference held in Montr\u00e9al from October 28 to 30, 2025. The national gathering featured more than 15 plenary sessions addressing key issues such as homelessness prevention, the lived experiences of unhoused people, data-driven policy innovation, advocacy strategies, supportive interventions, renters\u2019 rights, and Indigenous homelessness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The conference provided a valuable platform for Dr. Mpofu-Mketwa to share insights from her ongoing research on the Herongate Housing Crisis and to connect with practitioners, researchers, and advocates working across the housing and homelessness sectors. The featured photo shows Dr. Mpofu-Mketwa with Michele Biss, Executive Director of the National Right to Housing Network<\/a>. Michele and her colleagues presented on Canada\u2019s National Housing Strategy Act and the advocacy behind the Tenant Protection Fund, emphasizing the need for stronger tenure security across the country.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This year\u2019s conference themes also serve as an important lead-in to CSPSC\u2019s upcoming Housing Affordability Symposium<\/a>, From Housing Crisis to Affordable Housing: Organizations Rallying Together, Strengthening Capacities and Addressing the Housing Crisis in Ottawa, scheduled for March 24, 2025. The symposium aims to bring together housing stakeholders, including non-profits, government, and civil society organizations, to engage in multisectoral dialogue on local housing challenges. Building on discussions from CAEH25, the event will explore collaborative strategies for addressing Ottawa\u2019s housing crisis.<\/p>\n\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
