Advocacy
Apathy is Boring, Our vision is a Canada where every young Canadian is an active citizen, and youth are meaningfully engaged in all aspects of the democratic process. This is more than just voting. It is about setting up youth to find their lane for engagement and ultimately, take charge of the conditions they live in. We create space for youth in decision-making roles. We support and encourage governments and institutions to do the same.
CDCE Coalition for the Diversity of Cultural Expressions: The Coalition for the Diversity of Cultural Expressions (CDCE) is the voice of the cultural community. It promotes the UNESCO Convention on the Protection and Promotion of the Diversity of Cultural Expressions. It ensures its implementation to give it the full force of application at the national level. The CDCE monitors the Canadian government’s commitments under the Convention. It ensures that the government’s capacity to implement policies to support local cultural expressions is properly preserved and deployed; that trade liberalization and technology development do not systematically lead to a standardization of content and a disruption of local ecosystems in the face of foreign investment.
Perception Institute, Research, representation, reality (US) Perception Institute is a consortium of researchers, advocates, and strategists who translate cutting-edge mind science research on race, gender, ethnicity, and other identities into solutions that reduce bias and discrimination and promote belonging. We work in sectors where bias has the most profound impact—education, healthcare, media, workplace, law enforcement, and civil justice.
