The theme for the 2025 Breath of Fresh Air Summit is ‘Play Across the Ages – Nature’s Call to All’. Across practice, policy, and research, this year’s Summit aims to explore how the landscape of outdoor play across generations has changed due to screen time, concerns over safety, and climate change, to name a few! Looking to the past, present, and future of outdoor play, the 2025 summit aims to inspire conversation and action on the value of play in fostering community, inclusive play environments, environmental stewardship, and overall health and well-being, informed and celebrated by the official launch of the 2025 Position Statement on Active Outdoor Play on the first day of the Summit (Sept 25th)!
BREATH OF FRESH AIR is a three-day Outdoor Play Summit where thought leaders, practitioners, researchers, and policy makers can connect and share best practices.
The summit will feature inspiring talks, hands-on workshops, and open conversations on how research, policy, and practice may promote and shape the future of outdoor play in Canada and abroad.
