Together for a more inclusive southern West Island
Together for a more inclusive southern West Island is a project that aims to improve the participation of people of immigrant origin and ethnocultural minorities in the collective life of our southern West Island community.
There are three main objectives:
- Encourage people of immigrant origin and ethnocultural minorities to participate fully in community life, with a particular focus on decision-making bodies and democratic life.
- Support the efforts of organizations (community, public and private) that wish to diversify public participation to their activities, including decision-making and democratic ones, through the creation favorable conditions and tools aimed at reducing obstacles to participation for people of immigrant origin and ethnocultural minorities.
- Support the establishment of conditions conducive to the sustainable and rewarding integration of people of immigrant origin and ethnocultural minorities by relying on concerted efforts with community partners who work with these groups.
The project timeline is January 31st, 2022 – August 31st, 2024.
