The meaningful issues that are deeply-rooted in the Downtown East Toronto include poverty, homelessness, housing, community safety, mental health, substance use and the drug poisoning crisis. Challenges accessing formal systems for support and resources results from experiences with overlapping systems of exclusion and intersecting points of oppressions like stigma, racism or gender. The main question […]

This project focuses on identifying and developing methods of estimating the Green house Gas (GHG)- emissions related benefits of bicycle infrastructure (such as, painted bike lanes, protected bike lanes, multi-use trails). GHG-emissions estimation methods that consider both the “benefits” and “costs” related to active transportation infrastructure is extremely rare, and as a result, there is […]

Human land use generates water pollution. Watershed managers use various tools to reduce pollution from human land uses. These tools include funding new fertilizer application equipment that reduces losses of pollutants from agricultural fields, and funding the construction of rain gardens and stormwater ponds in urban areas to reduce runoff. These tools all have costs […]

The project aims to develop new flight control systems for Urban Air Mobility (UAM) vehicles, designed for short to medium-distance travel within cities. However, the operation of these vehicles, especially in Canada’s inclement weather conditions face significant challenges, particularly when flying in icy conditions, which can endanger flight safety by affecting the aircraft’s stability and […]
