Virtual Event: Promoting Island Resilience and Sustainability - Tuesday, September 1st, 2020

The Institute of Island Studies is delighted to kick off a season of online programming with a Virtual Hub event discussing “Islands and COVID-19 Recovery Plans: Promoting Resilience and Sustainability.” This virtual panel discussion will be an opportunity to share lessons on how islands are demonstrating resilience as they respond to COVID-19, and bring a collection of local voices together to discuss the challenges and opportunities that we are navigating here on Prince Edward Island. This virtual event is free and everyone is welcome to attend via Zoom. Advance registration is required – please visit islandstudies.com/virtualhub to reserve your spot.
