We are delighted to invite our partners, students, and friends of the SSHRC research partnership to the Annual Online Convention on Quality in Canada’s Built Environment, taking place from November 12th to 15th, 2024. This year’s convention brings a fresh, dynamic format with four daily sessions, each lasting 1 hour and 30 minutes, featuring updated roadmaps to quality from three or four research sites.
Event Overview:
This convention provides an exceptional opportunity to connect with peers, discuss challenges, and review progress on quality roadmaps from various research sites. We strongly encourage all participants to join multiple sessions to gain a comprehensive understanding of shared themes and potential synergies across the partnership. National partners will be invited to contribute their insights and recommendations during the final session on November 15.
