Conceived as a beacon of accessibility, green construction, urban equity, and sustainable urban progress, the Pavilion's 4,000 square feet stand as a global epicenter for envisioning cities and towns as cornerstones of the Sustainable Development agenda. The result of a formidable partnership, which includes Daniels' significant $3 million commitment over five years, the Pavilion, now known as the World Urban Pavilion in Regent Park – Powered by Daniels, ensures a free and accessible haven for both local residents and global advocates of sustainable urbanization. Designed as a vibrant hub for cross-border knowledge exchange, the Pavilion, nestled within Daniels' DuEast mixed-use development, offers an open, gallery-inspired space fostering collaboration and ideas. Its inauguration unveiled the exhibition "Canada Home," spotlighting Canadian innovations in housing, communities, and sustainability, while concurrently launching UN-Habitat's transformative SDG Cities Initiative through a global hub poised to guide over 1,000 cities toward the attainment of the 17 Global Goals by 2030.

Notably, the conference birthed The World Urban Pavilion in Regent Park, a visionary endeavor powered by Daniels and supported by Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation, amplifying the impact of the UEF-UN-Habitat alliance.

Bringing together global town leaders, the 3rd Collingwood World Summit (CWS3): Habitat in Towns 2022, organized virtually by the Urban Economy Forum (UEF) in collaboration with the Town of Collingwood and UN-Habitat, fostered vital discussions on sustainable housing, financing, and the pursuit of UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) within the context of towns. The summit saw participation from over 90 speakers representing 50 countries and approximately 180 international towns and small cities, sharing insights and best practices that underscored the pivotal role of towns in shaping secure, equitable, resilient, and sustainable communities. Key themes emerged, including the imperative for alternative and affordable housing solutions, innovative financial models for housing and climate action, localized SDG implementation, and the nurturing of inclusive governance and community engagement processes. As the demand for housing continues to challenge global economies, the summit underscored the necessity of collaborative approaches across sectors to address this complex issue, emphasizing that housing inclusivity requires cross-sector partnerships, social innovation, and novel financing mechanisms. Furthermore, the Town of Collingwood's aspiration to be an SDG Town, exemplified through pilot projects and the World Urban Pavilion in Regent Park, reflects a commitment to sustainable urban development driven by data, innovation, and the SDGs. The summit's outcomes encompass a resolution outlining recommendations for local sustainable urban development, the inception of a Global Network of Town Leaders, and the establishment of a secretariat to amplify the voice of town leaders, bridging the gap between metropolitan centers and towns on both national and global scales.

June 22, 2023 – Parks in Action by University of Toronto. A World Urban Pavilion Exhibit
The exhibition "Parks in Action: Towers, Hubs, and Open Space Transformations" shines a spotlight on the pivotal role of parks, open spaces, and public realms in catalyzing climate action within Toronto's inner suburbs. These diverse urban green areas, encompassing ravine networks, pocket gardens, street rights-of-way, and green roofs, play a vital role in mitigating and adapting to climate change, regardless of their size. Toronto's parks serve essential functions by combating the urban heat island effect, enhancing biodiversity, improving air quality, and managing water, while also acting as inclusive gathering spaces that nurture social interaction, health, and well-being. The exhibition underscores how climate action within public spaces encourages participatory design and social engagement, spanning from small local installations or "hubs" to cohesive "tower communities" along urban watersheds. Central to this effort is the connection between social equity and climate adaptation, ensuring that all communities, irrespective of socio-economic backgrounds, enjoy equitable access to the advantages of green spaces. The showcased work is a collaborative culmination of community members and researchers from the University of Toronto and Toronto Metropolitan University. It stems from interdisciplinary research, notably the "Towers in the Park: A Prospective for Equitable Resilience" project, and collaborations with Transform To climate action and TMU's School of Urban and Regional Planning, aiming to harness the potential of these spaces for a sustainable future.
