Mini Summit 2026: Call for Session Host Submissions!

We are very excited to once again be hosting our annual Mini Summit this year!

Mini Summit 2026 is taking place on Wednesday June 24 from 9:00 am - 12:30 pm MST for virtual sessions.

In person only sessions and experiences will take place on Friday June 26th, from 12:00 pm - 5:00 pm at Carya's Village Commons in downtown Calgary.

This year we are looking to explore "Exploring Supports and Locating Impact within Community Development Work"
We are looking for Community Development Practitioners from across Calgary and beyond, to host sessions sharing their work, tools they love, or hosting workshops or conversations that matter.   Please complete this form with your idea for what you might host, your preference of time slot and include any information that will help us support you.

Once you have filled out the form it will be reviewed by one of the working group members and an email sent to you to confirm we have received it.  We may include clarifying questions in our email to help us in our planning.  The last few years we have received more applications than we have the ability to host/funding to honor, we do anticipate having to select applicants based on clear alignment with the bolded theme above.

Application Deadline is Sunday April 19th!

We are currently accepting session submissions here. If you have an idea but want to talk it through first, email us at: cdli@caryacalgary.ca!
