CCR Fall Virtual Consultation- Welcoming Newcomers With Open Borders
The CCR Fall Consultation will take place on-line 29 November – 3 December 2021 on the theme of Welcoming newcomers with open borders.
As we advocate for open borders, we also must address the barriers within sectors, within groups and communities and within ourselves. Welcoming newcomers means working together to ensure justice, capacity and participation for all – from those who have cared for this land for centuries, to those who are here now and eager to contribute to society.
This consultation will address key aspects of the realities faced by newcomers and the organizations that serve them. Participants will learn, discuss, brainstorm and share resources and strategies in a series of workshops, caucuses and meetings.
Registration is now open! As per last year, we are using the event platform Pheedloop. On the event website, you will find all the information regarding the Consultation. It is your go-to place for more information about registration, schedule, sessions, fees and sponsorship opportunities.
