The DRR Roundtable has long been a place for a national conversation about disaster risk in Canada. As the pace and impacts of disasters accelerate and strain our systems and coping mechanisms, that conversation is needed more than ever.
This year’s Roundtable looks ahead to 2040 and beyond, creating space to explore how the world is changing, what that means for disaster risk in Canada, and the actions we can take now to navigate uncertainty with greater confidence. The Roundtable brings people together to examine emerging trends, consider their implications, and shape pathways that can help Canada move toward a more resilient future.
The morning session focuses on identifying and exploring the forces shaping the future, the impacts they may have on disasters and resiliency, and how to keep people at the centre of our collective work as we adapt our approches and systems to a changing risk landscape.
