THE CONFERENCE THEME—Rising Tides
The theme for the 2024 API Conference, Rising Tides, is influenced by its location in Saint John, along the Bay of Fundy and the highest tides in the world. Whether it be the waves of population growth seen across Atlantic Canada, adapting to the tides of climate change, or navigating the complex challenges facing our communities, our profession is anchored in the desire to improve the quality of life for all community members, respecting the diversity of needs, values, and aspirations. As planners, we are committed to advocating for the public good and continue to be propelled by the goal of strengthening our communities.
