Explore Past Cohorts

CRIS cohorts bring together communities facing similar challenges—whether it’s climate hazards like flooding or wildfires, or infrastructure issues like aging facilities that need upgrades—with trusted place-based project partners and experts from our Roster.

In 2025, 15 small and rural communities from across Saskatchewan participated in the CRIS Ice Rink Cohort, a hands‑on program designed to improve their ice rink upgrade projects, lower costs, and reduce greenhouse gas emissions. This cohort was delivered in partnership with the Saskatchewan Urban Municipalities Association (SUMA) and Eco West Canada.

Discover Insights from this Cohort

The first CRIS program offered specifically to Alberta communities, this cohort provided access to one-on-one expert support, as well as targeted education and peer-to-peer learning via webinars and working groups delivered in partnership with the Municipal Climate Change Action Centre (MCCAC). Ten participants were matched with an industry expert to help advance their selected low-carbon infrastructure projects.
