As affordability in the context of the urban environment enters critical stages, the Institute Without Boundaries carefully compiles research and relevant insights about "the future of affordability and its impact on the human experience." Held in Toronto, the event will seek to show how "design action" can be used to ease up the impact of the rising cost of living.
Institute Without Boundaries holds that design presents "the human capacity to plan and produce desired outcomes." It is believed that if one can think in interdisciplinary ways, as well as engage in productive collaborative activities and critical discussions, the problems associated with mass migration, geopolitical fragility, wage inequality, urbanizations, climate change, architectural accessibility, technological innovation, and more can be systematically addressed.
'Experiences of Affordability' by the Institute Without Boundaries possesses ideas that are rooted in human value, needs, and experience.
