The 2019 Livable Cities Forum: Building Better Communities through Resilience
Victoria
Conference Centre, Victoria, British Columbia.
October 28-30, 2019
The eighth annual Livable Cities Forum is being hosted by the City of Victoria in partnership with ICLEI Canada, SHIFT Collaborative, and ACT (the Adaptation to Climate Change Team), SFU.
The Forum is a boutique event widely known for its high-caliber
interactive sessions and diverse speakers on climate change action.
The impacts of climate change are being felt across social, built,
natural, and economic systems in complex, interconnected ways. Now, more
than ever, collaborative community-level action is required to build
sustainable, healthy, and equitable communities that are resilient to
the risks posed by a changing climate and more frequent extreme
weather. Actions that transform and protect our cities must play a role
in fostering livable, thriving communities. The 2019 Forum is designed
to showcase the importance of taking this synergistic approach to
climate change planning and implementation at the local level. Be a part
of the conversation on how to build better, stronger, and more
connected communities that are prepared for current and future impacts
of climate change.
