  • Women and Transit

    Transit affects all of our lives in a myriad of different ways. It especially affects women who are more likely to have lower incomes and are caregivers for their families. They rely heavily on transit, often making multiple trips within the day. This short video highlights how transit policy affect women's lives.

  • Women and Housing

    Shelter is a fundamental human need. Yet, in Toronto far too many people are shut out from affordable housing options. Women living in poverty are especially affected, as they struggle to meet the demands of paying rent, finding employment,and caring for their families. This short video highlights women's experience of housing policy in Toronto.

  • Women and Recreation

    We almost never stop to think about women's need for recreation. The availability of accessible and affordable recreation options for diverse women and youth receives little attention, with profound effects on their health and well-being. This short video highlights some of the challenges that they face.

  • TWCA Official Plan Teach-In

    TWCA hosted a teach-in on Toronto's Official Plan. An amazing group of diverse women came together to learn about the Official Plan, how it affects urban planning in Toronto, and how it affects their daily lives.
