The provisionally named “Toronto Social Development Network” is currently comprised of ten non-profit organizations committed to advancing equity-focused and inclusive social and economic policy in the City of Toronto.
The Toronto Social Development Network seeks to build upon existing participatory community-centred planning processes and policy work by creating a collaborative structure that will further enable diverse and typically marginalized constituencies to reshape the conceptualization and practice of planning in Toronto.
