Aug 16, 2023: Future Scenario Workshop in Churchill, Canada

InfraNorth’s 1st future scenario workshop is organized in partnership with the Town of Churchill.

The workshop aims to bring local residents together to discuss possible future scenarios and their implications for the community of Churchill. In such scenarios, which are also visualized by local artist Nickia McIvor, Churchill could develop into a growing transportation hub or an ecological sanctuary.

The event is structured around two key activities:
1) The assessment of 4 future scenarios that have been developed by InfraNorth for their likelihood.
2) The creation of future scenarios according to individual desires and imaginations.
