Civic Meetup #530: Radical Transparency: Forging Power Equity in Toronto’s Rental Market
Ready to join in on the fun?
Topic: Radical Transparency: Forging Power Equity in Toronto’s Rental Market
Predatory behaviour in Ontario’s rental market is sustained by a systemic knowledge gap that keeps the less informed vulnerable. Discover how Toronto Home Zone, the city’s most active and trusted community rental space of 140k members, has been turned into a data-driven tool to enforce radical transparency and drive accountability in a system designed to favour insider interests and institutional gatekeepers.
Speaker: Deneille Macas
Deneille Macas, the lead Admin of Toronto Home Zone and owner of the Toronto Housing Society. Educational technologist, spreadsheet enthusiast, retired Habbo resident.
