About the Leadership Exchange

The International Housing Partnership Leadership Exchange is a unique international gathering of senior housing executives committed to advancing housing solutions in their respective countries.

The Exchange provides a forum for:

  • Peer-to-peer learning among global housing leaders

  • Strategic discussion on shared housing challenges

  • Exploration of innovative policy, financing, and service delivery approaches

  • Strengthening international relationships and collaboration

2026 Format

In response to participant feedback and the rapidly evolving global housing landscape, the 2026 Exchange will feature a collaborative, participant-driven format.

The program will combine:

  • Facilitated open space discussions

  • Short, ignite-style talks designed to spark dialogue

  • Site visits highlighting innovative housing models

  • Structured networking opportunities

This format allows participants to focus on the issues that matter most at the time of the event, while grounding discussions in real-world examples from Montreal and beyond.

Note: The agenda at a glance reflects the current program and will be refined as we approach September 2026.
