A Message From the CDA 2026 Co-Chairs

We are delighted to welcome the dam safety community from across Canada and beyond to Halifax this October for the 2026 CDA Conference, an event dedicated to advancing the safety, reliability, and sustainability of our dams.

Join us for thought-provoking technical sessions, interactive workshops, networking opportunities, and technical tours that foster collaboration and knowledge exchange. Set against the stunning backdrop of Halifax’s historic waterfront, this conference promises not only professional growth but also a chance to connect with peers in a vibrant and welcoming setting.
