Plenary #3

Join us as we explore how different generations can unite to shape the future of community housing as a cornerstone of social infrastructure.  

This session will delve into the vital contributions of seasoned experts, the perspectives of today’s professionals, and the innovative ideas of emerging voices. We’ll investigate how their unique perspectives and experiences can collectively form the ‘materials’ needed to build sustainable and resilient solutions. 

Our discussion will focus on strengthening intergenerational relationships, addressing the legacy of the founding generation, the impact of their successors, and the aspirations of future leaders. By examining these dynamics, we’ll discover how bridges generations can drive lasting impact and ensure that community housing evolves to meet future needs.
