Data at work!
I never thought that my work would show up on a CBC program like the Passionate Eye which aired a program on Homelessness called the Devil Plays Hardball which discusses a radical interventionist documentary of the same name. The page includes a link about facts related to Homelessness in Canada which refers to indicators I helped developed as part of work related to the Federation of Canadian Municipalities Quality of Life Reporting System and a report Trends and Issues in Affordable Housing and Homelessness.
From a CivicAccess.ca perspective, this project is excellent as one can download all of the data from the FCM site in both English and French, Reports, Explanations about the geography, and each spreadsheet includes metadata. The unintended outcome and audiences of ones work are the most intersting and surprising.
This work was done with Acacia Consulting and Research.
Congratulations Tracey!
