From March 13-15 our Child Welfare Immigration Centre of Excellence (CWICE) team were proud partners and presenters at the 27th Annual Metropolis Canada Conference at The Westin Harbour Castle in Toronto. This year's theme, “Resetting Canada's Immigration Plan and Program for a New Era” brought together policymakers, academics, and community leaders to discuss pressing issues related to immigration, integration, and the evolving landscape of Canada's workforce and social systems.
Our team led three discussion panels throughout the week:
Collaborative Child Welfare Practices for Immigrant and Refugee Families – together with Polycultural
Paving a Path for Digital Equity and Digital Transformation in Peel Region – in collaboration with PNSG/PMC
From Precarity to Security: Advancing Pathways to Citizenship and Equity in Child Welfare for Racialized Immigrant Families – together with OACAS and BLAC
The journey to digital equity is multi-faceted, and it’s crucial to ensure that no one falls through the gaps as the sector evolves. Together, we’re building a future where digital transformation truly leaves no one behind! 💡
Thank you to our incredible CWICE team for continuing to support discussions that drive innovation and system change.
