Webinar context:<\/strong><\/p>\n

The world is changing at an unprecedented pace, leaving many individuals and communities with a sense of uncertainty, and in many cases, worry. How do we respond to this rapidly changing world? How do we strengthen our local agency and resilience, socially, economically, and ecologically? With newly imposed tariffs that threaten to worsen the financial realities within our communities, we want to shine a light on thriving examples of re-localization in our region!<\/p>\n

Re-localization is a concept and movement with an aim to become more self-reliant in our production and consumption (while reducing reliance on distant supply chains) in everything from energy, to food, to climate solutions, and beyond.<\/p>\n

This series is held on the last Thursday of each month from 12-1pm Atlantic and will\u00a0explore examples of re-localization across Atlantic Canada.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
