Municipal Forum is an initiative by the CaGBC - Greater Toronto Chapter in partnership with Toronto and Region Conservation Authority. Leadership from Muncipal and Regional governments is one of the key areas brought forth in the  Green Building Advancement Strategy (GBAS). There is a great opportunity for Regional and Municipal governments to take a more active leadership role, as these groups are best equipped to drive change within their jurisdictions.  However, numerous barriers are present, including a lack of education and training amongst municipal staff, a lack of available resources and inconsistent policies across jurisdictions.
