We are working with 30 municipalities who are involved in the project. Stay tuned for updates and case studies from the Advancing Adaptation cohorts.
This project is being carried out with the financial support from the Ontario Ministry of Environment, Conservation and Parks and the Government of Canada through the federal Department of Environment and Climate Change Canada.

Agents of Change
The Agents of Change cohort is up and running on full steam, with each municipality designing programs that are tailor made for their community’s needs, guided by their local action plans and ambitious climate targets. The national cohort is meeting regularly to co-create with their peers while also drawing from experts in the field.
Stay tuned for more updates and capacity building resources as Agents of Change continues. This project is undertaken with the financial support of the Government of Canada.
