Convening for Action in Penticton: Forum will showcase partnerships, collaboration, innovation and integration

Convening for Action in BC

The Water Sustainability Committee of the BC Water & Waste Association, three provincial Ministries (Environment, Community Development, and Agriculture & Lands), and the Okanagan Basin Water Board are hosting a forum to showcase how partnerships, collaboration, innovation and integration are helping local governments in three regions make the best choices for sustainable, healthy and vibrant communities.

The forum is titled Smart Planning & Living Water Smart: Approaches and Tools for Doing Business Differently in BC; and is being held in Penticton in conjunction with the 37th annual conference of the BCWWA. The forum program is organized as four modules built around the creating our future and doing business differently themes.

“The Forum will be an exciting day because regional leaders will help you understand new approaches and tools for doing business differently; you can share your experiences in town hall sessions; and the networking opportunity means you can learn from each other,” anticipates Anna Sears. Executive Director of the Okanagan Basin Water Board.
