Enhancing public participation and lived experience in City of Toronto advisory bodies

Advisory bodies are one of the many ways Toronto City Council and City staff receive input from the public and organizations to address priorities and inform decision-making, policy development and service delivery. This project will assess current approaches to advisory bodies in Toronto and other Canadian municipalities and, through jurisdictional research and participant interviews, identify municipal best practices and opportunities to improve the structures, processes and governance of advisory bodies for current and future Council terms.
