Events are a good way to connect with the community, find new volunteers, engage supporters, and share what work the Victoria RRA has been up to. Party staff at the BC Greens organizes larger events throughout the year such as Fundraisers, Pride, and Party AGMs, however the Victoria RRA is in a good position to organise smaller, more localised events. These smaller events can be a good way to accomplish some of the deliverables outlined in the Victoria Regional Riding Association Agreement.

List of events

[edit | edit source]

This is a list of events that is organised directly by the Victoria RRA. Larger, party-wide events are organised by the BC Green Party and can be found on the BC Greens website event page, or by joining a mailing list.

Antihate workshop Join the Victoria BC Greens and friends to learn how to respond to and prevent the growth of far-right hate movements in our communities and around BC.

A facilitator from the Canadian Anti-Hate Network will lead a 1-hour online workshop, Go Where They Go - Effective Community Defence Against Hate, followed by the opportunity to ask questions about specific scenarios. This workshop is ideal for everyone to learn how to effectively counter anti-Indigenous, anti-trans, anti-migrant, and other far-right hate campaigns.

Event insurance

Some events require event insurance. Many insurance companies do not provide insurance for events they consider 'Political Activity', so it is important to double check with the provider to confirm that 'Political Activity is permitted. Below is a list of Insurance Providers that have been used for previous events:
