Rural communities are often blind to realities holding them back. This was the catalyst for Doug Griffiths groundbreaking book, 13 Ways to Kill Your Community, now seen as mandatory reading by rural leaders and local activists across North America. Griffiths is the only speaker to participate in both The Georgetown Conference and The Georgetown Conference 2.0 for good reason. He knows what makes rural communities tick, he knows how to fix it and he has a rare ability to connect and communicate in town halls and Main Streets everywhere. His positive impact is felt in communities in all four Atlantic Provinces. Griffiths talks why communities struggle or fail and what they can do about it, how to be a truly welcoming community (especially important given global events) and the huge opportunity awaiting rural communities that embrace change.
