About the summit

Our theme for this year’s Wildfire Resiliency and Training Summit is Recover, Rebuild, Prepare. The Summit will kick off with two days of training for firefighting professionals, followed by a three-day conference at the Prince George Conference and Civic Centre, where we’ll explore the lessons learned from 2023, along with the latest research, technologies, best practices and other information to help regions and communities prepare for the upcoming wildfire season. In addition to keynote addresses, expert panels, workshops and training programs, numerous networking opportunities will also be provided, for delegates to celebrate existing partnerships and make new connections. We look forward to seeing you in April as we work together to make communities across British Columbia more wildfire resilient.
