Workshop: Mapping Systems That Lead to Current Local Housing Situations

This third event in the West Broadway Tenant’s Committee’s “Root Problems: Exploring Systems Thinking and Tenant Resistance”, a four-part event series, is an interactive workshop that will focus on mapping out the complex systems that shape today’s housing issues in Winnipeg. We will work together to identify key players, policies, and practices that influence local housing situations. The goal is to uncover points for change that can support our tenant resistance efforts. Lunch will be provided to fuel our collaborative work!

Hosted at West Broadway Community Organization, 748 Broadway.
