This year, the topic of ‘Health and the Environment’ will be addressed through the many workshops, plenary sessions and presentations that are planned. Several of these scheduled events are open to the public, including the dinner and keynote speech on the 23rd. Please register now if you would like to attend, as spaces are limited.

Every year, members of the RCEN gather at the AGA to meet their peers, strategize at a national level around environmental issues and share information about their work. It’s also an ideal opportunity to make new connections and celebrate the past year’s successes. The Network’s voting membership, the National Council, also meets at the AGA to make important decisions concerning the future of the RCEN. Members of the public are invited to attend this event to learn more about issues of concern, share their ideas and to help find solutions to today’s environmental problems.
