Laurentic Forum 2021
The 13th Annual Laurentic Forum (2021) will once again be hosted in a virtual setting for all of our international followers to enjoy! The online conference takes place on the 2nd, 3rd & 4th of November 2021.
The Forum supports an overarching theme that is focused on Sustaining Coastal Communities by exploring the challenges & opportunities that lay before them.
This year’s conference will address thematic key aspects of Sustainable Tourism and The Value of the Blue Economy in the North Atlantic.
The event will include themed collaborative sessions from regional & national stakeholders who represent the consortium’s four partner regions across the North Atlantic. These include:
- The Canadian Provence of Newfoundland and Labrador;
- Northwest of Ireland
- Iceland
- North Norway
Each session will present informative insights into the various facets of sustainable tourism and Blue Economy in the North Atlantic area. This includes relevant case studies, followed by an engaging panel discussion comparing the four North Atlantic Regions.
We have chosen the icon of a lighthouse as a key feature of our logo because of the message it represents around the world — a beacon of hope to coastal communities. For centuries these guiding lights have withstood the elements in order to ensure safe passage, pointing the way to a secure future. It symbolises the mission of the Laurentic Forum and our hope to do the same.
This conference is free to attend with compliments of the Laurentic Forum and sponsors
