Presenters:
Fringing is for Everyone The Edmonton International Fringe Theatre Festival is the largest, longest-running Fringe Theatre Festival in North America and one of the top five worldwide. Each year, we welcome more than 500,000 site visits and ignite more than $16 Million in local economic impact over the 11 days of our Festival. We welcome artists from across the street and around the globe to share their stories with engaged Edmonton audiences. 100% of ticket sales from the Festival go back to Artists. In 2023, we returned $1.2 million in ticket sales to Artists. The Festival is made possible thanks to the dedication and skill of 1,000+ Volunteers; 1,600+ local, national, and international Artists; and 200+ skilled arts workers. We drive the arts ecology here at home, across Canada, and around the world. But more than that, Fringe Theatre is a safer space for brave ideas and big artistic risk. At Fringe Theatre, everyone is radically welcome. Our currency is kindness. We champion the dream of making it: making art, making community, making change, making memories. From our free KidsFringe programming, to our Indigenous led pêhonân Series; from our harm-reduction informed approach to community empowerment through our Community Care program, to our ASL for Theatre workshops; from our Co-Fringer engaged Volunteer program to our art-based training platform that celebrates inclusion, diversity, equity, and accessible: Fringing is for everyone and everyone is fringing. Learn how Fringe helps make Edmonton a vibrant, healthy, creative place to live, work, and play all year long. |

2024-09-16 12:00:00Z | Sep. 16, 2024 | Susan Ancel, Director, One Water Planning, EPCOR | EPCOR’s One Water Journey of Integrated Resource Planning – A History of Innovation and Resiliency | Sep. 16, 2024 12:00 p.m. |
Topic Summary: EPCOR Water Services has utilized an Integrated Resource Planning approach to manage the Water utility in Edmonton since the early 1990s. Integrated Resource Planning looks beyond the traditional master planning approaches focused solely on grey infrastructure solutions to opportunities to work with the environment and the community to identify approaches that build overall resiliency in the utility and position the utility as a partner for the changing community growth needs. Since 2017 with the transfer of the Drainage utility from a City of Edmonton department into EPCOR has been approaching water management from a One Water perspective. Susan will provide an overview of the successes of this One Water and Integrated Planning approach in Edmonton over the last few years, including our successes in water conservation, stormwater strategies and future direction to the wastewater systems in the community that make us a leader in Canada in management of our water resources. Susan Ancel is responsible for the development of the strategic plans for the utility across the entire water cycle for EPCOR Water Services. Some of her accomplishments include being recognized for her development of the Integrated Resource Plan for flood mitigation for Edmonton that considered capital and operational risk mitigation planning, as well as the interrelationships between utilities, insurance, disaster response agencies and the public. |
