Working Together is More Important Than Ever
Across Canada, climate impacts are increasing. People in communities, sectors, and organizations are coming up with solutions that strengthen resilience at the local, regional, and national levels. Adaptation Canada 2026 builds on this momentum and provides a whole-of-society approach to guide us into the future. More than a conference, Adaptation Canada is an opportunity to break down silos, build meaningful connections, and help shape long-term solutions to our biggest climate challenges.
Add Your Voice to National Climate Adaptation Discussions
Adaptation Canada 2026 will take place from September 22 to 24, 2026 at the Westin Harbour Castle in Toronto, on the traditional territory of the Mississaugas of the Credit, the Annishnabeg, the Chippewa, the Haudenosaunee and the Wendat peoples. A vibrant hub of government, business, and innovation, Toronto offers an ideal backdrop for discussions on climate adaptation, public/private partnerships, and collective action. Join us for three days of insightful panels, hands-on workshops, dynamic city-wide tours, exhibitions, networking events, and more.
Advisory Group
Adaptation Canada 2026 is made possible thanks to a network of practitioners leading climate adaptation work across sectors, scales, and regions. Planning for Adaptation Canada 2026 is being undertaken through the collaborative efforts of an Advisory Group, which is composed of the ICLEI Project team, funding agreement oversight committee members, implementing partners, and advisory partners. These include:
These partners help guide the vision of the conference, shape the program, and ensure the event reflects the breadth and depth of adaptation leadership in Canada.
Together, we can drive bold action and build a more resilient Canada today and for tomorrow.
