Annual Research eSummit
CPPCL’s PanCanadian Parks & Protected Areas Research Network was created as a knowledge exchange and dissemination network, as part of an outcome of a collaborative knowledge mobilization research project and a pre-conference workshop at the 2019 Canadian Parks Conference.
The Research Network hosts an annual virtual summit (“eSummit”) to bring together Knowers (scholars/knowledge keepers), Doers (practitioners), and Learners (students, new hires) to share knowledge and build a network across the parks and protected areas field.

As a virtual event, the eSummit helps reduce our carbon footprint and increase accessibility for participants.
This event combines online collaboration with activities to connect with nature wherever you are, as well as opportunities to network with colleagues both near and far. The Research eSummit also includes a pre- and post-session regional challenge workshop in your own time zone and a year-long monthly webinar series. All sessions are offered with simultaneous French/English interpretation.
