UBCM 2025 Convention: Charting the Course

Local governments across British Columbia face an increasingly complex and demanding landscape, where limited resources must be stretched to address an ever-growing list of competing priorities. Yet, it is precisely in the face of these challenges that our strength lies. Together, we draw on our diverse communities, each offering fresh perspectives and unique solutions to shared problems. This collective journey fuels a synergy that unites and motivates us year after year.

At the heart of this collaboration is a commitment to tackling some of the province's most urgent issues—from economic development and housing affordability to climate resilience. Through ongoing partnerships, cross-regional collaboration, and a shared dedication to innovation, we work to develop policies and strategies that respond to these critical challenges.

The 2025 UBCM Convention presents a pivotal opportunity to amplify our voices, fortify our relationships, and ensure that, together, we continue to drive meaningful progress that benefits all communities across BC.
