Conference « Laval, ville insulaire » (''Laval, insular city'')

News - Intro image

Laval ZéN and Conseil régional de l’environnement de Laval are proud to launch their new series of conferences, titled « Laval: entre terres et rivières » (''Laval: between lands and rivers''), as part of the Climat de changement initiative. The first conference will be presented during the Semaine des actions ZéN (''Week of zero net emission actions'') on Thursday, March 31 at 7:00PM, at Collège Montmorency

Unlike several other cities, Laval is... an island! This particularity influences its natural environment and the impacts that humans may have on it. Thinking of Laval as an island means reflecting on its place in a greater ecosystem - the St. Lawrence's, as well as the aquatic environments that support it -, but also on the representation and the territoriality of Laval. This conference will therefore aim to explore the insular character of Laval territory while highlighting its distinctive features, evolution and representations, as well as the challenges of this situation.

 

Do not miss this event on Thursday, March 31, at 7:00PM, at Collège Montmorency (French-speaking only)! We will have the pleasure to welcome skilled panelists from Fondation Rivières and Parc de la Rivière-des-Mille-Îles.

 

Registration is mandatory to attend the event.
