About our Podcast series
British Columbia is in the grips of a housing affordability crisis decades in the making. We need to find innovative solutions.
The Province has an ambitious plan to address the crisis through the largest investment in housing affordability in BC’s history.
Tasked with building tens of thousands of homes in hundreds of communities is BC Housing, the province’s agency responsible for developing, managing, and administering a wide range of subsidized housing and homelessness services across the province.
BC Housing doesn’t do this alone. To address the challenge, it’s working with hundreds of partners. In Let’s Talk Housing Season Five, you’ll get to hear from those delivering exciting affordable housing solutions.
Hosted by Mita Naidu, episodes address deep-rooted societal issues:
- the right to affordable, accessible and culturally appropriate housing
- mental health challenges
- homelessness
- meeting the needs of women and children leaving violence
- fostering community acceptance
- role of the private sector
- Impacts of climate change on housing.
