Federal: Event in a Box-Virtual event on the COVID-19 vaccination

The past year has been very difficult as families, businesses and communities struggle to cope with the effects of a global pandemic. The safe and effective vaccines available in Canada will help prevent severe illness, hospitalizations and death from COVID-19. Canadians need to make informed decisions about COVID-19 vaccination. 

The Government of Canada will be relying on organizations across Canada to help disseminate this information and invite you to get involved by organizing a virtual event on the COVID-19 vaccination for your networks.

To assist you in this endeavor, they have created a virtual Event in a Box resource, focused on Canada’s COVID-19 immunization plan.  Whether you want to organize a webinar or event for your clients, colleagues, members or employees, you’ll find what you need in the suite of resources contained in the virtual Event in a Box. The Event in a Box includes a PowerPoint presentation, speaking points, videos and many other helpful resources on the event planning process, which can be easily adapted to suit a wide variety of virtual event formats.
