2023 Community Challenge in Alberta 

Help us to amplify the importance of economic development by taking part in the 2023 Community Challenge. 

For the third year in a row, Alberta Municipalities and Rural Municipalities of Alberta are joining EDA to encourage municipalities, large and small, to formally recognize and celebrate Economic Development Week.  

You can participate by having your community officially proclaim May 8 - 12 to be "Economic Development Week!"

Let's get it on your community's calendar now.  

Last year, more than 50 Alberta communities made the official proclamation.

It's easy, here's how: 

1. Customize a sample resolution.

2. Have your Council/Mayor officially proclaim the week in your community and sign the resolution.

3. Share the proclamation with local media, and on your social media pages. 

4. Don’t forget to tag us: Twitter: @edaalberta; LinkedIn: @Economic Developers Alberta (EDA) and Facebook: @EconomicDevelopersofAlberta 

4. Email us at admin@edaalberta.ca and it will be added to the EDA website.
