Toolkit: the Role of Municipalities on Welcoming Newcomers

The Observatory, in cooperation with the Canadian Commission for UNESCO and the International Coalition of inclusive and sustainable cities (ICCAR), presents the publication "Welcoming Immigrants and Refugees to Canada: the Role of Municipalities". 

This Toolkit provides an overview of the main challenges, types of action and promising practices in canadian cities. This guide also includes case studies and examples of initiatives, as well as a series of practical tips for cities.

The document was written by researchers from the Association of Canadian Studies (ACS) and benefited from the input of several experts and practitioners accross Canada.
