Join us for an informal, non-partisan evening of conversation, connection, and community-building over a pint. This event is open to public servants, students, and anyone interested in public policy.

We’re excited to welcome Chantelle Abanilla, Director of the Forestry Digital Services Modernization Program at the BC Ministry of Forests, who will offer a short talk on: Human-Centered Design in Action: Transforming BC's Digital Forestry Services

The evening will include:

• A 15-minute talk (around 5:15pm)

• Informal networking and social time

This event is hosted in partnership with the UVic School of Public Administration and is a unique opportunity to meet the incoming cohort of MPA students for fall 2025. Come meet fellow public servants, the IPAC-Victoria Board, share your ideas for future events, and connect with a growing network of policy-minded folks in Victoria.

Entry to the event is free - pints not included. Please RSVP below.
