Summit 

Convening, collaborating, and co-creation is in CivicAction’s DNA.

This is always clear during one of CivicAction Summits. Every four years, CivicAction uses the Summit to crowdsource issues that are keeping the region up at night and to develop better solutions together.

Canvas: Drawn Together for a Purpose, CivicAction’s 2019 Summit, marked a period that saw almost 1200 civic designers, artists, and collaborators from all sectors generate nearly 800 ideas to set our new action plan for the Greater Toronto and Hamilton Area (GTHA).

The day was centred on five of the pressing urban challenges in the GTHA: getting ready for the future of work, tackling housing affordability, preparing for extreme weather, preventing sex trafficking, and unlocking inclusive leadership.
