The Manitoba Heritage Summit was organized in 2020 to discuss the state of heritage in Manitoba with the following four objectives:
- Identify common themes among PHAs relating to heritage and history in Manitoba
- Identify present and future opportunities and challenges that will be beneficial for the delivery of heritage-related programs and the management of heritage resources around Manitoba,
- Foster improved collaboration and communication between PHAs and smaller heritage facilities around the province, and
- Prepare a White Paper on the state of heritage in Manitoba and its development over the next 10 to 20 years, toward a long-term vision for Manitoba’s 200th anniversary in 2070.
