Manitoba Climate Resilience Training (MCRT) Project
The MCRT Project was developed as part of the Building Regional Adaptation Capacity and Expertise (BRACE) Program, an initiative of Natural Resources Canada. It focused on increasing the ability of communities, organizations, small and medium-sized enterprises and practitioners to access, use, and apply knowledge and tools on climate change adaptation in their work. Access free training videos, presentation slides, guidebooks, and more below.
Climate Adaptation Planning for Manitoba Communities
“From Impacts to Actions” is a collection of three guides designed to help Manitoba municipalities and communities in completing the adaptation planning process.
Developed by the Government of Manitoba’s Climate Action and Energy Innovation Division (CAEID), these guides provide a comprehensive walkthrough of each stage of the climate adaptation process.
Manitoba Climate Resilience Training (MCRT) Program
The MCRT Program delivered a comprehensive suite of training and capacity building modules around the following streams: Planning, Infrastructure, Indigenous, and Northern Business. The workshop materials enhance climate knowledge and help users integrate climate risk and opportunities into decision-making and planning.
The MCRT Program was a joint undertaking of Natural Resources Canada and the Government of Manitoba.
MCRT Capacity Enhancement in Vulnerability and Risk Assessment (CEVRA) Project
The MCRT Capacity Enhancement in Vulnerability and Risk Assessment (CEVRA) Project delivered a series of workshops for municipalities and watershed districts. The workshop materials, including tailored climate risk assessments and guidance documents, will help users better understand climate vulnerabilities, risks (and opportunities), integrate adaptation into planning and investment decisions, and translate data into actionable information.
The CEVRA Project was implemented by the Government of Manitoba’s Climate Action and Energy Innovation Division (CAEID).
Climate Risk and Capacity Building Needs Assessment (CRCBNA) Project
The Climate Risk and Capacity Building Needs Assessment (CRCBNA) Project delivered four workshops to northern communities in Manitoba. This project sought to increase their understanding of climate vulnerabilities and risks (and opportunities) to enable the integration of adaptation into community planning and investment decisions. Specific priority areas of climate vulnerabilities and risks discussed in the workshop focused on infrastructure, food security, health and well-being.
The CRCBNA Project was implemented by the Government of Manitoba’s Climate Action and Energy Innovation Division (CAEID).
Climate Action Fund - Engineers Geoscientists Manitoba Infrastructure Training Project
The Engineers Geoscientists Manitoba (EGM) Infrastructure Training Project delivered a range of courses which provide engineers, geoscientists and other professionals and decision-makers with advanced knowledge and skills in climate change adaptation and mitigation.
This Training Project was funded by the Government of Manitoba’s Climate Action and Energy Division under its Climate Action Fund.
