ABOUT LCF
Advancing local resilience while transitioning to a net-zero future are increasingly mainstream as communities realize the impacts of a changing climate on people, assets, and the natural environment. At the same time, communities are finding that they cannot work in isolation to advance this important work – dialogue, exchange, and cooperation with key partners from various sectors is crucial.
The Livable Cities Forum (LCF) is Canada’s preeminent event for municipal leaders and practitioners who want to create livable cities. It provides a space for delegates to learn from colleagues and experts, share their knowledge and experiences, and participate in workshops and panels showcasing local innovation related to climate action and resilience.
LCF is widely known for its high caliber practical sessions, diverse speakers, and meaningful networking opportunities. The Forum attracts over 300 delegates, including municipal staff and elected officials, senior provincial and federal government representatives, non-governmental and private sector representatives, and other urban professionals from across the country.
OVERARCHING THEMES
LCF has been exploring how to take action at the local level to make our communities more livable since 2011. The core themes of energy transition, climate adaptation, and meaningful and inclusive engagement are interwoven throughout program sessions from year-to-year. Each LCF explores additional themes to support local climate action based on emerging trends and lessons we are continuously learning through our work with communities across Canada.
