Advocacy

We look at is as community building, working with all levels of government.

Advocacy

Advocacy has evolved, and transparency has replaced backroom politics. It’s about sharing best practices, learning from each other, and asking tough questions about the political landscape of issues that matter to commercial real estate and what’s needed to overcome resistance to the change we need to see. We need to support innovative strategies and forge stronger alliances to amplify our collective voice.

Advocacy: Shifting priorities, repurposing resources, accelerating policy development, and more. In this new environment, tried and tested advocacy tactics like face-to-face interactions, ad hoc hallway conversations, and informal chats are no longer viable options.
