It is in this context that a structural transformation has been implemented\, led by the FOHBGI. This initiative resulted in the creation of Logéco as a central mechanism and regional safety net designed to intervene when consolidation becomes necessary\, safeguarding community housing\, preserving collective assets\, and ensuring the long-term continuity of operations for both organizations and tenants\, while pooling property management\, standardizing practices\, and strengthening professional support. It has also fostered a new culture of collaboration and solidarity across the region. \nThe discussion will explore Logéco’s journey and the key features of its model\, addressing why and when to consolidate\, the tools available to support consolidation\, and the conditions for success. \nCentre’s attendance: Teresa Guillem\, Stefanie Einfeld\, (guest: Catherine Desrochers)
