UPCOMING EVENTS: Montréal Civic Engagement Roundtable

Over the past four months we have been working hard on getting things in gear for the Montréal Roundtable on Civic Engagement. The format of this years's Roundtable has been designed to ensure a productive, efficient, effective and relevant event, and we look forward to your participation in this process.

The date for the Regional Roundtable is the 14th and 15th of October. Leading up to this event will be several discussions. It is strongly recommended that participants at the Roundtable participate in at least two of these discussions. The dates of the sessions have been spread out to allow for everyone to be able to participate in as many sessions as possible. See below for the dates and topics of each event.

Come share your ideas about being an active citizen in Montreal, and get a change to hear what others have to say as well. Participate in discussion groups leading up to the creation of a final report, and have your say in the articulation of Montreal's plan to become the most civically engaged city in the world.

On behalf of the Roundtable organizing committee, we look forward to your involvement in the Montreal Roundtable process and encourage you to bring your friends who you feel would be interested in contributing to this project and attending our events.
