Collaboration & Innovation in Impact Assessment
DATE: October 22nd – 23rd, 2014
LOCATION: Tabaret Hall – University Of Ottawa
OVERVIEW:
Achieving positive outcomes, focuses on the fundamental changes over the last five years to the ways in which impact assessment is carried out, the role these changes are playing in decision-making and how we can still achieve positive outcomes. Change offers many opportunities – opportunities to rethink how we carry out our business; opportunities to redefine the outcomes we desire to achieve through impact assessment; opportunities to collaborate and innovate with impact assessment to reach these desired outcomes; and opportunities to collaborate and innovate within impact assessment to reach these desired outcomes in new and different ways.
