The annual ClimateWest Forum is returning to Winnipeg on May 12 & 13, 2026. This year’s event will be held at The Leaf, a spectacular gathering space that overlooks vibrant garden biomes, providing a natural and tranquil setting for the Forum.

The ClimateWest 2026 Forum will bring together a diverse mix of Indigenous and non-indigenous organizations, individuals, communities, municipalities, businesses, and academics who share our goal of building a climate-resilient future. Now entering its fourth year, the ClimateWest Forum supports those looking to understand current climate impacts and prepare for future risks in the face of a changing climate. This annual event serves as a hub for the climate adaptation network across Alberta, Saskatchewan, and Manitoba, providing opportunities to network and exchange knowledge on climate preparedness and adaptation action.
