About this Event
The BC Climate Resilience Summit (BCCRS) 2027 is a two-day interactive event bringing together researchers, academics, scientists, policymakers, community leaders, industry professionals, First Nations partners, and innovators of all kinds to advance climate and disaster resilience in British Columbia.
To be held March 1–2, 2027 at UBC Robson Square, the Summit builds on over ten years of collaborative work to strengthen shared understanding of natural hazards, climate risks and advance low-carbon resilience.
Across two days of interactive panels, facilitated dialogues, workshops, demonstrations, and fireside conversations, attendees will explore how BC can accelerate practical, inclusive, and scalable climate and disaster resilience solutions.
Why This Summit Stands Out
- Highly Interactive: Designed for dialogue—not monologue—with real-time input tools and opportunities for facilitated Q&A, networking, and cross-sector problem-solving.
- Locally Grounded, Broadly Relevant: Focused on Southwest BC and its 'major hazards of concern' while offering insights applicable across the bioregion, across Canada, and globally.
- Cross-Sector by Design: Bridging research, policy, community, and industry perspectives to generate shared understandings, build trust, and spark innovation.
