SUMMARY:GEM Seminar Series

DESCRIPTION:TOPIC: Exploring Amplification Pathways of Nature-Based Climat
 e\nSolutions in Canadian cities\n\nSPEAKER: Kayne Boyall (MSc student sup
 ervised by Dr. Sarah Burch)\n\nLOCATION: EV3 1408\n\nCities are increasing
 ly central sites of climate action\, amid\ncompounding biodiversity and ec
 onomic crises. Yet efforts to transform\nurban systems remain constrained 
 by path dependency\, indeterminacy\,\nand shifting priorities. Nature-base
 d climate solutions (NBCS) have\ngained prominence for their capacity to 
 “multi-solve” by\nmitigating emissions\, addressing climate risks\, en
 hancing\nbiodiversity\, and delivering social–ecological co-benefits. De
 spite\nthis promise\, urban NBCS in Canada often remain confined to\nsmall
 -scale pilots and disconnected demonstration projects\, limiting\ntheir tr
 ansformative potential.\n\nThis research examines how NBCS can move beyond
  pilots to be amplified\nwithin broader systems of urban governance and tr
 ansformation. Drawing\non 20 semi-structured interviews with NBCS practiti
 oners and\ngovernance experts alongside planning and policy documents in\n
 comparative case study of Vancouver\, BC and Halifax\, NS\, this study\nma
 ps distinct but interrelated pathways of amplification along with\nthe act
 ors\, enabling conditions\, and catalysts shaping the growth of\nNBCS init
 iatives. Particular attention is given to how institutional\nand organizat
 ional contexts influence the stability\, diversity\, and\nprioritization o
 f co-benefits. The findings inform efforts to design\,\ngovern\, grow and 
 sustain NBCS in support of just\, low-carbon and\nresilient urban futures.

DESCRIPTION:TOPIC: Making a home in Waterloo: international student famili
 es and\nhousing insecurity\n\nSPEAKER: Dr. Nancy Worth\, with Dr. Alkim K
 araagac\n\nLOCATION: EV3 1408\n\nOur two-year case study in Waterloo\, Ont
 ario—a city known for its\npurpose-built student housing—reveals that 
 international student\nfamilies face distinct challenges in the local hous
 ing market. While\nall students contend with high housing costs\, families
  struggle to\nfind suitable accommodations in a market dominated by single
 -student\nunits. International student families must also navigate unfamil
 iar\nrental processes with limited institutional support\, as higher\neduc
 ation institutions typically consider off-campus housing beyond\ntheir rem
 it. Although international students are often blamed for\nhousing affordab
 ility issues\, our findings indicate they are among the\nhousing crisis’
  most vulnerable groups.
