This year's event marking the first opportunity to gather in person since COVID turned the province upside down for two years.
The overall theme for this year’s annual convention, "Value of One, Power of Many" centers on the avenues, areas and ways local governments can and must forge forward together to successfully align resources to deliver community needs.
The 2022 edition is the 119th Annual Convention and it takes place at the Whistler Resort from September 12-16, the theme for 2022 "Value of One, Power of Many" explained as follows:
Our Convention theme in 2022 was developed to drive the most relevant and timely discussions to the forefront, as UBCM gears up to return to in-person collaboration with our membership, and to work with provincial and federal governments to shape and boost recovery in our communities.
