La conférence nationale 2024 de FPC Together 25 Ensemble sera la plus importante jamais organisée. Elle réunira les membres, amis, partenaires et chefs de file du secteur afin d’échanger, d’apprendre et d’explorer de nouvelles idées sur la façon dont la philanthropie peut s’attaquer aux défis urgents de notre époque. Nous croyons au pouvoir de l’apprentissage, de l’échange et de l’action collective, et cet événement sera un catalyseur de changement et de croissance.

Nous avons conçu une conférence qui allie apprentissage, dialogue et collaboration afin de permettre au secteur philanthropique de jouer un rôle plus important dans la promotion d’un avenir juste, équitable et durable.

Pour souligner le 25e anniversaire de notre réseau  et tabler sur le succès de notre conférence de 2022 à Montréal  nous vous invitons à vous joindre à nous encore cette année!

Ce qui vous attend

Sur la base du retour d’information des conférences précédentes, voici ce que nous prévoyons déjà d’offrir :

  • Une approche pragmatique, adaptée et collaborative grâce à la participation des membres à la conception et à la présentation de la conférence.
  • Un engagement et un impact réel, favorisés par de multiples formats d’apprentissage menés par des collègues et des leaders du secteur.
  • Un mélange de connaissances de base, de pratiques exemplaires, de réflexions et d’approches critiques, à travers trois volets thématiques intersectoriels présentant un intérêt majeur pour notre communauté philanthropique.
  • Une représentation inclusive, respectueuse et équitable des intervenants, des animateurs et de la conception des sessions, afin de garantir qu’ils représentent l’étendue et la diversité de notre pays.
  • Un espace authentique pour apprendre de la philanthropie menée par les autochtones et au service des autochtones, et pour la soutenir.
  • De nombreuses occasions de réseautage en personne, ainsi que des rencontres informelles qui facilitent la collaboration et engendrent des relations durables.
