Keeping It Rural Conference

BC Rural Centre
Throughout North America, rural communities face similar issues and obstacles. It can be both informative and motivating to learn about the successful efforts of small rural communities, First Nations, and rural development organizations, both within and beyond our province of BC, in strengthening their rural communities.

As a result, the BC Rural Centre is committed to organizing and hosting a truly rural-focused conference on rural development, spotlighting effective and innovative initiatives. This two-day event is brimming with inspiration and ample networking opportunities.

Successful rural economic development often depends on the existence of rural development organizations with the vision and capacity necessary to affect positive, lasting change.

During this conference, we will explore a wide array of topics, including but not limited to agricultural practices, water resource management, rural development strategies, climate resilience, and the role of technology in enhancing food and water security in rural areas. Our objective is to generate insights, disseminate best practices, and ignite action to ensure that rural communities not only thrive but also address real challenges such as food and water scarcity, climate change, and environmental sustainability.

We extend an invitation to you to join us in these vital conversations, where we will delve into innovative ideas, establish meaningful connections, and collectively work towards a future in which rural communities not only endure but flourish. The Keeping it Rural Conference 2024 pledges to serve as a platform for constructive dialogues, collaborative solutions, and a catalyst for positive transformation. Thank you for being an integral part of this crucial discourse.
