Our city is at a crossroads, and the best path forward will be chosen together.
An expert panel of activists and urban thinkers will set the context for the conference by outlining the global forces facing Vancouver and how they are impacting the lives of residents.
From international finance to climate change, from conflicts in other countries to migration, Vancouver’s future is shaped more and more by world events.
Our panel will explore how cities and their residents can and must come together to take collective action to meet these challenges head on.
