The Livable Cities Forum: Creating Adaptive and Resilient Communities
November 29-30, 2012
Hamilton, ON Canada
The Livable Cities Forum is now less than three weeks away! This forum will bring together adaptation experts, municipal staff, and local elected officials from across Canada. Don't miss your chance to engage in these exciting and timely dialogues!
Keynotes and parallel sessions will cover a wide range of topics including: strategies for bridging science and communication; adaptation tools and frameworks; insights from the insurance industry, adaptation strategies for small and rural communities; adaptation, mitigation and biodiversity synergies; communication strategies; and planning for resilient communities, among many others.
We are also very pleased to be offering a special program stream - Elected Officials Connect. Canadian Mayors and Councillors are invited to participate in these exclusive and exciting workshops to hear Dispatches from City Hall and Stories of Prevention and Preparation from fellow elected officials. To learn more about how your elected officials can participate, contact Megan Meaney (megan.meaney@iclei.org).
