In partnership with Canadian municipalities, practitioners in the field of prevention, policymakers and other supporting authorities, Planet Youth is committed to change the environment of youth to reduce risk factors and strengthen preventive factors in their lives.

The registration process

To secure your spot at the Planet Youth Canada Conference, we’ve implemented a pre-registration process due to limited seating in the TwentyTwo conference room. Early registration is encouraged to maximize your chance of attending in person.

If the Conference reaches capacity, don’t worry—you’ll still have full access to the event through our Zoom livestream, allowing everyone interested to participate remotely.

VENUE: The Westin Hotel Ottawa

The event will be held at the  Westin Hotel Ottawa, in the TwentyTwo conference room, offering views of downtown Ottawa and the Rideau Canal. Located on the 22nd floor, the TwentyTwo room provides an inspiring setting for the event. Enjoy the Conference and this beautiful venue as we work together to shape a healthier future for our youth.

Practical information

For Q&A guests will be able to write the ideas they might have during the event on a yellow sticker and hang it on a board in the meeting room. Guests on Zoom will be able to post questions in the on-line Q&A board. Questions will then be answered at the end of the conference, if time allows.
