A World of Solutions was open throughout the UN Conference, with events at a number of locations, including many at the Complexe Guy-Favreau right next door to the Palais des Congrès. With a few exceptions, all of A World of Solutions was open to the general public.
Supported by the Government of Canada, and organized by the private sector and various non-governmental organizations, these Parallel Events ensured municipal leaders, premiers and governors, Aboriginal peoples, business and industry, non-governmental organizations, youth representatives and the general public all had a place and a voice at Montréal 2005.
