What should U of T’s St. George campus look like by 2040? The University of Toronto St. George Campus Plan 2040 is set to guide the long-term growth and transformation of U of T’s urban campus. We’re thrilled to announce that our Community Engagement team is leading the engagement process, guiding conversation around the future of the St. George campus! We’re excited to partner with ICE (Indigenous and Community Engagement), a 100% Indigenous-owned firm, leading the Indigenous engagement efforts. Together with @uoft University Planning, @gehlpeople (the Public Space and Public Life Study team), as well as the Public Realm Plan design team, we’re looking to build a vision for a vibrant, sustainable and inclusive campus!

Bousfielders had a great time last night as one of the table sponsors for the annual ULI Meet the Chief Planners Event! This year, we were also thrilled that Emma West, Bousfields Partner and Chair of the Women’s Leadership Initiatives Americas, was invited to present the ULI Americas Annual Awards for Excellence to the team behind the ‘Canary Landing - Maple House’ project. Thank you to @uli_toronto for organizing this fantastic event full of great conversations and connections.

March was International Women’s Month, and International Women’s Day was celebrated on Saturday, March 8 this year. This year’s theme was ‘Accelerate Action’. This past month we asked women at Bousfields to share some thoughts on #IWD / #IWM and ways to #AccelerateAction. Be sure to swipe through to read what some of them shared! International Women’s Day is a globally celebrated day to recognize the social, economical, cultural, and political achievements of women worldwide. Focusing on the need to Accelerate Action emphasizes the importance of taking swift and decisive steps to achieve gender equality. It calls for increased momentum and urgency in addressing the systemic barriers and biases that women face, both in personal and professional spheres. #internationalwomensday #internationalwomensmonth
