Michelle Xuereb, Quadrangle’s Director of Innovation, was among the speakers at this year's TEDxToronto held at Evergreen Brick Works on Saturday, 26 October. An architect and ardent environmentalist, Michelle’s speech delved into the pressing issue of climate change, how it affects our cities, and what we can do to design a more resilient Toronto.

“Climate change can be a daunting topic for people to wrap their heads around, and I want to give people a place to start,” Michelle explains. “Socially connected communities are resilient communities, able to learn from, adapt to and thrive in the face of change.”
