Rural Recreation Summit 2024 by the WLCE@VIU

The Rural Recreation Summit is for recreation and leisure service providers looking for professional development and networking opportunities. The WLCE@VIU is hosting two days of workshops and dialogue sessions that target those working in smaller municipalities and unincorporated communities; however, the topics are also relevant to leisure service providers across Canada.

Dr. Jackie Oncescu from the University of New Brunswick will deliver a keynote on Nov. 13 focused on the innovative work that she and her team are doing to provide leisure access to equity-owed citizens living in poverty. She will also lead a half-day workshop on Nov. 14 for delegates to learn how they, too, can increase leisure access to those who aren't always served.
