The Mana Conference is implementing the following measures to ensure a safe conference experience
Health and safety measures will be in place as issued and/or recommended by federal, state, provincial and local/university of Alberta Environment Health and Safety authorities, including the conference venue.
The Conference follows Health Canada's guidelines for vaccination requirements.
All mandatory public health restrictions were lifted on June 14, 2022, and it is no longer required to wear a face mask while outdoors or in public indoor settings. However, for everyone’s safety, all conference participants are strongly recommended to wear masks for the duration of the meeting.
Food & Beverage: Where possible, we will favor serviced buffets, food served pre-packaged or in closed containers.
Cleaning & Hygiene: High-touch areas will be regularly cleaned and sanitized. Hand sanitizer stations will be positioned at key locations throughout the event.
Social Functions: When available, all gatherings will follow the current regulatory guidelines and event policies, such as distancing, hygiene, and mask wearing.
COVID Protocol Communication: Health and safety guidelines will be communicated on the Conference website, on the conference mobile app when available, in pre-event messaging, and on-site event signage.
Rapid Testing Kit: Limited Covid rapid testing kits will be available at the conference registration desk.
Notify the registration desk or the MANA organising commitee.
Call 911 if you experience severe and potentially life-threatening symptons, such as difficulty breathing.
You should leave the conference hall as soon as possible and contact the MANA organising committee if you require first aid, PPE, or any other assistance.
