Neighbours & Networks: New Brunswick NCA Working Group Meeting

With a nod to the East Coast tradition of gathering informally in the kitchen – from where great ideas, community, and connections manifest – our first online meeting of the New Brunswick NCA Working Group, Thursday, November 20, 1:30 to 2:30pm AT, will be presented with an added collaborative feel.

The New Brunswick NCA Working Group is a resource for municipal staff participating in QUEST Canada’s Atlantic Net-Zero Communities Accelerator (NCA) Program cohort, and engaged in community energy transition planning, partnership-building, and net-zero energy projects.

Hosted by QUEST Canada’s Lead, Community Energy Planning & Projects, Aaliyah Lahai, the event will aim to make the topic of municipal energy and emissions reduction less daunting. And we’ll be sure to leave ample time for questions and peer-to-peer discussion.
