March 11: Espace Solutions Returns for Its Second Edition! — 5 projects on over-capacity and presentations on tools for neighborhood use
Born out of a desire to identify the needs of local neighborhoods and address them collectively, Espace Solutions is back in full force for its second edition, this time with a focus on reducing car use!
On March 11, 2025, we invite you to the second Espace solutions meeting at the Salle Pierre Bourgault (J-1450) at UQAM!
The Solutions Space, conceived and tested by TeC’s Neighborhoods Division, is a platform for sharing knowledge and expertise to benefit our communities; it was created out of a desire to identify the specific needs of neighborhoods and to address them collectively.
This event, organized this time in collaboration with TeC’s Demotorization Working Group and UQAM’s Resilient Cities Hub, will showcase five neighborhood projects or issues related to excessive car use and mobility in the context of the socio-ecological transition.
